Shorter days

Last evening I washed my jacket used for the shorter days. It is mostly white so as to make me more visible during the evening and darker hours on my ride home after eating out. The Segway has lights on the front for the purpose of alerting people.. On the back of the jacket is a bright flashing red taillight. I fear an accident from the rear more than from the front. Sidewalks usually have enough night so obstacles can be avoided. I feel safe after dark on the sidewalk and pedestrians are safe as I ride carefully and slowly. Extra precaution is used at all intersections and blind spots.
