Description

This paper presents the recognizable distance of the bicycle by the pedestrian at night. The experimental place is the intersection of a city recognizable area with the road about 4m wide. The result is the following : (1). The color of clothing of the cyclist and the light of bicycle have little influence on the recognizable distance. (2). When there is a corner cut-off, the recognizable distance is long. It is effective in preventing the accident to make a corner cut-off at the intersection. (3). When there is the bike with the light on at the opposite corner, the lights have influence on the recognizable distance.
