Reflective tape is a thing. That can be used without electricity.
They don't like colours (flashing wealth and putting yourself above your fellow man) I think reflective tape might be just a bit to flashy......
At least where I used to live around the Amish long ago they would put those big orange reflective triangles on each end. The rest was plain as can be as usual. It sounds like it depends on the group but many are fine using something not-entirely-plain if it has a safety benefit. I’ve seen the Amish using safety gasses etc.
Agreed, that would be a good first step in the right direction. It shouldn’t remove the requirement for lights.
Reflective tape should also be on the horses’ gear.
