GET LIT! at College-Shaw Library

Did you know? From half hour before sunset to half hour after sunrise, you must have a front white light and either a rear red reflector or rear red light. You also need to be lit when it’s dark due to rain, fog, or snow.

Drop by our tent outside the College-Shaw Library and GET LIT!

This year, Get Lit! is generously supported by Toronto Police Service, McLeish Orlando, Urbane Cyclist Worker Co-op, and Sweet Pete's Bike Shop.

Why is this important? 

Without a light, you become invisible at night. With lights and reflectors, you can be seen again. Ontario law requires that bicycles be equipped with a front white light and either a rear red reflector or a rear red light, from half an hour before sunset to half an hour after sunrise. Lights, reflectors, reflective tape, and bright clothing help drivers and pedestrians see cyclists at night.
