Explanation
When riding at night in California, a bicycle must have a white headlamp on the front and a red reflector, solid red light, or flashing red light on the rear. The rear light or reflector must be visible from up to 500 feet away. These requirements help ensure that bicyclists remain visible to other road users in low-light or nighttime conditions.
