A lot of people park their cars on the “bicycle boulevard” that I live on, in order to visit businesses on the street a block over. Then they get out wearing all black and cross the street, and they’re very-nearly invisible. I think we should have a law that drivers must wear hi-viz at all times, in case they need to get out of their cars.
(And helmets. Drivers should wear helmets. Head injuries from car crashes are still a serious problem.)
But what if the rider gets off the bike? Then he could suddenly become invisible!

Then you just become a pedestrian, it is illegal to run them over too.
