I reckon cyclist's front lights can be lost in the glare of car headlights behind. I notice that cyclists are particularly tricky to spot if they have their front light on steady for some reason. Not an excuse though as JWestland said.

I don't drive often, especially when dark, but needed to last night and it was horrible. I could barely see a thing due to being so blinded by car headlights, especially newer cars with halogen bulbs - It was ridiculous. I bet it's no more dangerous if everyone instead drove with their parking lights on.
Maybe I just need to clean my windscreen...?

This is why I ride with one steady light and one superbrightdiscolight.

Fuckers.
(I had similar a few weeks ago, light on, car goes for it anyway. I suspect it's hard to estimate distance / speed of cyclists for motorist with just a bright dot identifying the cyclist but it's really no excuse to not slow down/be extra careful)
