We used to PT at 0530 in an urban area. We had 4 or 5 students get hit by cars on indiviual runs. When the senior Marine Officer was asked why he didn't make us wear reflective belts, he responded, "If they are not smart enough to avoid traffic; they are not smart enough to lead Marines."

That probably wouldn't go over too well today...
