    Is that what you'd say if a driver hit a cyclist who had no lights?

    If the car was crossing an oncoming lane and hit a cyclist coming down that lane, then yes.

    It's happened me a number of times with pedestrians crossing roads all in black with their head in their phones where the pedestrian lights were red - they're in the wrong but it doesn't absolve me from being alert and reactive to these possibilities.

    The court heard that neither speed nor alcohol were a factor in the incident and that road conditions were normal.
    Been thinking about this statement some more. What's the appropriate speed for driving a car in the dark with no lights on? :confused:
