This is ***NOT*** a silly law. I have come close to killing people
riding bikes with the headlight off. Not on purpose, but simply
because they were for all practical purposes invisible. I have yet to
come close to a bike with the light on. I actually used to put my high
beam on when I was riding on bright sunny days. It's unlikely that
you'll run into someone that you're swearing at (at least by accident
:-)
