Didn't really expect much from DrivingUk but honestly the amount of downvotes shocked me. God forbid people go out at night dressed normally without full on high vis.
On a bicycle, you’re out in the same environment as pedestrians and your eyes are attuned to the light level.
Motorists are in an enclosed cabin, the things they look at are predominantly sources of light - the dashboard, traffic signals, or the reflection of their headlights off objects in the environment.
A motorist’s pupils are contracted, so they have perception of contrast in poor light conditions.
