how NOT to cross a road - Darwin awards

I wonder if dark dressed ppl in the dark on the wrong side of the road dont have a license themselves

@pathologicalimbicile: I don't think they think or have ever put themselves into the position of how visible they actually are, from the drivers perspective.

@pathologicalimbicile: The test is pretty easy.... depending upon where you live, you want to hang some clothes across an abandonned / dead end / middle of the nowhere street / road or on a fence on the outer tight corner in a road..... in a dark or very poorly lit area, get a black shirt, a 50/50 dark gray / brown / shirt, a white cotton shirt and then a reflective jacket or it has reflective tape on it - space them about a meter or so apart, about standing height... and then turn your head lights on and just roll back and notice at what distance they become hard / difficult / impossible to see - and make a note on your odometer readings... and flick between high and low beam.... and just roll back until everything except the reflective tape shirt becomes invisible and take an odometer or GPS reading, and then start rolling forward and make a note of when the white, the dark coloured and the black shirts become visible... , and take notes - estimating is fine too - then there you go, work our your suburban speed, then your highway speed, work out your velocity in meters per second, and then add in the time taken to react and apply the brakes say 1/3 to 1/2 a second - and the rest is your stopping distance... AND essentially the person is the black is just asking to be run over... and if there are vehicles comeing the other way, you have the glare of their head lights.... and or if it's wet, rain soakes up the light from your car - making most things visible at only 1/3rd the distance at night........ Wearing dark and hard to see clothing, when walking along the side of the road or running across the road or riding a bicycle - is just high risk low IQ shit..... White bright clothing, reflective stripes, flashing lights, etc... They are a necessity.

@Life_N_Times_of_Shane_T_Hanson: If anyone wonders if they are visible, the car driver says use a fucking reflect

@pathologicalimbicile: Perform the test. Come to your own conclusions.
