I'm glad he didn't flee

I go down that stretch of Norton Road sometimes after Dark. There are constantly people walking along the road or biking with dark clothing on. there's hardly a edge to walk along on either side of the road. You don't see them until you're right on top of them. on a couple locations I swerved into the oncoming Lane to avoid them. You'd think they'd have enough sense to wear something white or reflective.
