Illuminated bicyclists

Illuminated bicyclists: AB478 by Assemblywoman Lois Wolk, D-Davis, requires bicyclists riding after dark on sidewalks in cities where bikes are permitted there to have functioning lights and reflectors. A previous law already required lights and reflectors for bicycles operating on streets after dark. The new law also allows bicyclists to wear reflectors on their shoes or ankles in lieu of having reflectors on the pedals.

Time to stock up on reflector ankle straps!!!
