Serious question- if a runner/biker is out at dark in dark clothing on the roadway with no light or reflectors, someone hits them- is th driver at fault?

I don't think reflectors are really the issue here, I've never seen anyone take reflectors off of a bike. People are too busy texting to see other cars much less a runner/biker.

Don't know....but imagine you had a couple beers with dinner and hit them.
shite could get real all because some idiot isn't seen.

It would probably depend on if you were texting or talking on the phone at the time.

It depends, brah.
There is such a thing as contributory negligence and it seems to be the answer you're searching for.
