Don't drive at speeds that are unsafe, especially on unlit or winding roads and when using low beams. Be mindful that high beams can blind an approaching driver, bicyclist or pedestrian. Be sure they are turned off when a car approaches, especially on two-lane roads. If blinded yourself, look down and toward the right edge of the road. Look for pedestrians, bicyclists, and deer along the roadway.
Deer are especially active at night.
Wearing reflective or fluorescent gear helps you remain visible to motorists. School children can place reflective strips on book bags and lunch boxes. Don't depend solely on the traffic signal. Pedestrians should walk facing traffic so they can see oncoming vehicles. Bicyclists should travel with the flow of traffic in the same direction as other vehicles.
