Actually, not all that un-sensible. Maybe the lights were flat?
Maybe he'd come to the (not unreasonable) conclusion that standard
bike lights are so poor a good hi-vis jacket is better round town?

But even if he had come to that conclusion - he was still breaking the law by
riding without lights being lit. When I'm out on my bike I keep a spare set of
batteries with me, in case I do have lights going flat. Then, I can swiftly get
the situation sorted to remain legal.
