About Bicycle Day-time Running Lights (DRL)

Bicycle lights help improve the visibility of the bicycle riders as well as other road users when there is an insufficient lighting condition. These lights help illuminate the reflective traffic and road signals on the road. They also help the rider to see and identify the hazards ahead on the road.

Bicycle lights help improve traffic conditions during the night, along with retro-reflecting material and street lights, as they increase the visibility condition, reducing the risk of an accident. They also help reduce the reaction time, thereby, reducing the severity of the accident, by helping the driver to take action in order to avoid the mishap. There are many countries, which have mandated the use of lights in bicycle during the dark and impose fines if the lights are not deployed.
