Having dang near hit a buggy at night without reflectors, I"m inclined to lean towards working out something so that there are reflectors. Those things are too hard to see otherwise.

I can imagine driving a buggy at night on the street with no lights and no reflectors is very dangerous. Perhaps some kind of less garish reflectors might be a good solution. I would guess that the religious principles of drawing undue attention would not be violated by reflectors that were not very noticeable except at night with headlights shining on them.

I live in PA and work in Lancaster county. My commute to work goes through an area with a lot of Amish farms and I’m occasionally stuck behind a buggy. More often I’m stuck behind a slow moving farm tractor. But the Amish here in PA and the farm tractors all have the orange triangles and the buggies have turn signals too.

I’ve come up on a buggie at night, especially this time of year when the days are short and I’m glad they have the orange reflectors. I can’t imagine driving on a windy country road a night and coming up on a slow moving horse and carriage with no reflectors

Interestingly one day I stopped at a grocery store near work that has special “Buggie Only” parking and, I’m not making this up, there was an open buggie parked that had a bright red gasoline can in full view in the back.

That was almost as strange as the afternoon I was leaving a golf driving range in NE Maryland and saw a pickup truck some sort of work truck, drive up with two black guys and a young Amish guy. They came to play putt putt.
