Please no. You should not be required to carry a beacon in order to be safe walking around a city or crossing a street.


The woman who was hit ran across the road. It's easy to be safe: don't do that.


Am I supposed to get in a car to cross the street?


You could hail an Uber.


Use a crosswalk?


Sure, when they're available. Have you looked at the area where the woman was hit?


People are supposed to wear bright clothing when walking at night or biking. Maybe we can have an optional beacon..
