Increased use of bicycles resulted in increased interest in safety for cyclists, and therefore in bicycle lamps. This report deals with a Danish Lighting Engineering Laboratory project concerned with the emission of light of bicycle lamps as a safety factor. The lamps' visibility was thought to be of greater significance with regard to safety than illumination of the road ahead. Because of this view of the function of bicycle lamps, they actually are comparable to motor vehicle taillights and parking lights. Therefore bicycle lamp requirements are based on those for such lights. It can be expected that the Danish Standardization Council will produce a Danish standard for lighting engineering requirements for bicycle lamps by the early part of 1982. Battery lamps will presumably satisfy such a requirement, so that the use of generator lamps will not be demanded indirectly.
