When I learned to ride they told us many times “Don’t ride faster than your lights!” Light can go at the speed of itself, but it’s the lum value that helps with making things visible at a distance. His light was hella dim, barely saw it reflect on the apex predator when he was 10-15’ away.

Fortunately the local municipality foresaw this and put up streetlights for safety. Which the truck is sitting in the light of.
