Walkers, "in the dark".
It is wonderful to see so many folks up and about walking at 6 or 7 in the am.
But perhaps a little safety is needed when it's dark outside.
Reflective clothing or lights of some kind, and walking against traffic.
All or any is your choice for sure but remember, you are walking with older people driving golf carts and cars that most likely are vision impaired to some degree as well as having slower response time, and more and more on the phone thinking they can talk and drive just fine (yeah right).
Anyone here owning a golf cart knows when driving it with front window up, in the dark, visibility is poor at best. Add to that, you all know many drivers here are not as good (or safe) as they think.
Lastly, the most important thing to remember;
The fact that "you the walker" think you can see fine while walking has nothing to do with the other person's vision or ability to be safe.
