Does your second sentence contradict the first? First you say to make yourself visible so others can see you, then you say to not depend on others. I agree with the second sentence. I don’t think it matters what I wear. I am vigilant and assume I am 100% invisible and get out of the way when someone approaches. It seems to me that making yourself highly visible might give you a false sense of security. It doesn’t matter how visible you are to a distracted driver.
