     bicycling at night is more dangerous than in the daytime and poor conspicuity is likely to be a contributing factor. the use of reflective markings on a pedestrian's major joints to facilitate the perception of biological motion has been shown to greatly enhance pedestrian conspicuity at night, but few corresponding data exist for bicyclists. twelve younger and twelve older participants drove around a closed-road circuit at night and indicated when they first recognized a bicyclist who wore black clothing either alone, or together with a reflective bicycling vest, or a vest plus ankle and knee reflectors. the bicyclist pedalled in place on a bicycle that had either a static or flashing light, or no light on the handlebars. bicyclist clothing significantly affected conspicuity; drivers responded to bicyclists wearing the vest plus ankle and knee reflectors at significantly longer distances than when the bicyclist wore the vest alone or black clothing without a vest. older drivers responded to bicyclists less often and at shorter distances than younger drivers. the presence of a bicycle light, whether static or flashing, did not enhance the conspicuity of the bicyclist; this may result in bicyclists who use a bicycle light being overconfident of their own conspicuity at night. the implications of our findings are that ankle and knee markings are a simple and very effective approach for enhancing bicyclist conspicuity at night.
