It's dark out!

Amsterdam, known for high levels of urban cycling, is
undertaking a massive "licht aan" campaign to get
cyclists to use lights at night. The city is covered
with billboards like this one. Violators are routinely
stopped and faced with two options: purchasing a
set (front and back) of clip-on blinking lights for
about $25 on-the-spot from police (worth $15 at the
store), or receiving a ticket for $50.

So all you cyclists out there in Boston, use lights!
They're cheap.
