How can a pedestrian walking along a poorly lit road reduce the risk of an accident occurring?

Correct answer

Wear high-visibility clothing.

Official explanation

Even with the best headlights, drivers can see less at night than during the day. Pedestrians and unlit bicycles are extremely difficult to see in the dark, particularly if they have to deal with the glare of oncoming lights. Pedestrians should always wear bright and high-vis clothing during the day and reflective clothing at night when walking outside built-up areas.
