I would prefer a bicycle had no lights than one brighter than my car headlights, and fucking well flashing. How do they think it's safe if the 2 tonne vehicle approaching them can't see where they're going?

Who told you that? A lot of sections of river are privately owned. Ditto lakes
and ponds. It might be the case in scotland but in the rest of UK it most
