I'm surprised that in those busy waters that the HM isn't more proactive in enforcement. But then I'm also amazed that in an area like that with loads of wafi's, super tankers, fast ferries, Cruise ships, war ships and ribs zipping around that anyone would think sticking glow sticks on (probably the wrong colour, certainly not bright enough, and presumably not limited to the right segments) is suitable. It's not like the time of darkness is hard to predict either, if it is a likely occurance fit proper lights - you wouldn't drive a car on the road with just a glow stick on it, and I'd guess most people here are scathing about cyclists without lights at night! If it's a genuine emergency option (like an electrical failure mid passage) then probably a really bright torch is better.
