I would like to add some items of safety that I use:
1. 3-point shoulder belts are much better than lap only;
2. Head restraints to reduce whiplash injury from hits from the rear are important;
3. High-mounted brake and turn signals are much more visible and supplement the lower lights;
4. Daytime running lights (LED's) add visibility;

Having read the police recommendations I need to add taillights for nighttime return from music programs. I'll use the blinking LED's that you see bicycle riders using.
If you have headlights, you should automatically have taillights, the rear bulbs are dual filament, low for taillights, bright for turn signals.
