If I was going to walk some distance on an unlit road then I might carry a light but here I am walking on a sidewalk or an MMP with street lights all around me.
Of course, carrying a light or wearing reflective clothing will make you more visible and *should* make you more safe. But there is also something to be said for personal responsibility. Trust me, I am awake when I walk and I'm smart enough to pay attention to the traffic around me. I will stay out of the path of your car as long as you keep your car off the sidewalk.

We don't have sidwalks around where I live. People walk in the street and wear dark cloths, making them very hard to see. And please don't tell me I shouldn't be driving. I have a perfect record and 20/20 vision.
