Oxford Police have issued 162 fixed penalties notices in three hours during their annual crackdown on cyclists riding without lights.
Officers were working in the city centre between 18:00 and 21:00 GMT on Wednesday.
Police said the numbers issued were comparable with previous years.
The £30 fines can be avoided by purchasing a set of lights and presenting the receipt at a police station within seven days.
Further checks will be carried out during the coming months.
