I’ve always biked against traffic so that I can see the cars that are coming my way. I feel safer this way. When the cars are behind me, I feel I am at a higher risk of getting hit.
This post, https://www.reddit.com/r/IdiotsInCars/comments/e8i24j/just_gotta_get_to_work_on_time/ , reminded me to finally get to the bottom of this.

Also pointing out that in some places because you’re required to obey rules of the road that includes things like lights and reflectors. In the dark, your bright light is blinding to people coming at you from the opposite of your heading. If they’re on the same side of the road as you that’s me dangerous for both you and them. If you go with the flow of traffic they’ll still see you but not be blinded by your light.
