Safety Lights

One of a parents worst nightmare ………..

Like most others you probably have limited amounts of free time.

Sometimes you find yourself trying to balance work and family activities especially, if you have children. You may occasionally have to engage quality family time at night.

You soon find that nighttime activities with kids are hazardous. Imagine you are walking around the  neighborhood as you've done on many occasions. You usually do it in the day time but, this time its night. You see a car approaching in the distance. You grab your childs hand.

Just as  the car comes around the corner, your child decides to pull away from you and jumps into the street.

 Clouds, darkness and dark clothing make your child difficult to see.  The driver struggles to stop the car, but its too late. He hits your child.  The car finally comes to a stop.

Your blood pressure is through the roof! You run over to your child. You fear the worst. Luckily your child is only bumped, with a few minor bruises.

What if the driver had saw your child long before he got close? He could have anticipated that the child might do something unpredictable and approached with caution. Illumination is the affordable key to safety at night.!!!!

Night time bicycle safety

If you enjoy night time bicycle riding, safety lights will be something for you to consider. There are many new types of bicycle safety lights offered today than ever before. Lighting your way, not only in front of you, but to the sides is the safest way to enjoy a bicycle ride at night. Purchasing a rechargeable lighting system for your bicycle can be quite expensive. 

The price usually runs over $100 for a simple bicycle lighting system. Making yourself visible at night is very important. Most drivers of vehicles are not looking for cyclists on the road, so lighting yourself up can help you stay safe. The best safety lights to help you to be visible to traffic are xenon strobes. 

Choose either a red or amber strobe for the back of your bicycle and a clear strobe for the front. A low wattage headlight in the front is what the law requires for safety. These xenon strobes are also visible in daylight, making these safety lights a good choice.

There are many creative ways to bring attention to your self. Using white bicycles, reflective paint, neon orange or lime green bikes glow in the dark and increase your chances of being seen by motorists. Some bicyclists use a car light, since people are often looking for car lights and not the small pinpoint lights of a bicyclist. Other bicyclist uses safety lights on their helmets to attract attention. 

A beacon can be attached to your helmet with velcro. Currently their are new LED safety lights on the market. These large LED flashers are designed to use as a highway safety light. The cost is cheap for 18 extremely bright LED lights that are sure to draw attention. Don't forget reflective tape on pedals, shoes, and clothing. To view your path ahead, you will want at least a 10 watt headlamp. 

The use of halogen lamps will light up your path even on the darkest streets and roads. Take safety into mind when purchasing your lighting system. Small flashing lights may look cute but will not provide the safety you need while riding your bicycle in the night.
