Light up, be seen and be safe
Posted on 18 November 2021
With dark evenings, it's important to be seen if you're cycling on the roads.
The Highway Code states that, at night, cyclists must have white front and red rear lights. If you don't have lights, you could get an on-the-spot fine.
Bikes must also be fitted with a red rear reflector and amber pedal reflectors.
