All cyclists should do everything they can to be visible at night. That being said there is still no excuse for hitting a cyclist while overtaking them, even if they are not covered in lights. If you are paying attention and have decent eyesight it should not happen. And there is certainly no excuse for hitting a cyclist hard enough to kill them and leaving the scene of the accident. I'm sure it was panic but it's no excuse.
