What's this?

I’ve come closer to hitting several walkers at night....

Each time it was in my neighborhood. I was driving slow, under 25. The walkers were all women dressed totally in black or dark grey with ear buds in. I’ve asked to please wear something light colored & to walk facing the traffic. They just look at me like I’m from another time.
