Hi-vis law in France and Ireland passed, who's next??

[locksmith]

IIRC hi-vis is bright yellow for the daytime and the reflective panels are for low light/night, so the bright yellow wont disappear in the sunlight.
 
Anyway, on the railways they use orange rather than yellow, I wonder what the reason for that is?

The orange is as easy to spot as the yellow,due to the background darker colours, but the orange does not show the dirt in the same way yellow jackets do

Sunny Intervals Quote :-  Take the same photograph with correctly adjusted car headlights, no camera flash, and the person in Hi Viz standing at the 3 breaking distances in the highway code.


The pic was taken with a small digital camera    anyone spot the guy in the background on the right sat down with his glowing Hi Viz ? l hope so otherwise l'd be worried about your observation skills

Even in bright day light, Hi-Vis jackets catch my attention quickly.

But you still have to be *looking*. As I mentioned above, on the A29 within the space of five minutes *two* drivers nearly pulled out on me because they didn't look properly.
