How can a pedestrian walking along a poorly lit road reduce the risk of an accident occurring?

  1. Walk on the left hand side of the road.
  2. Walk as part of a group.
  3. Wear dark clothing.
  4. Correct answerWear high-visibility clothing.

Explanation

Even with the best headlights, drivers can see less at night than during the day. Pedestrians and unlit bicycles are extremely difficult to see in the dark, particularly if they have to deal with the glare of oncoming lights. Pedestrians should always wear bright and hi-vis clothing during the day and reflective clothing at night when walking outside built-up areas.

行人在昏暗道路上行走时,如何降低事故发生的风险?

  1. 靠道路左侧行走。
  2. 作为团体的一员一起行走。
  3. 穿深色衣服。
  4. 穿着高可视度服装。

即使使用最好的车灯,司机在夜间的视力也不如白天。在黑暗中,行人和未装灯的自行车极难被看到,尤其是在面对迎面而来的灯光时。行人在白天应始终穿着亮色和高可视度的衣服,在夜间走出市区时应穿反光衣物。
