Be more visible in the dark!

  Reflective elements play a crucial role in ensuring the safety of pedestrians and cyclists.

  Reflectors bounce back headlight beams, making vulnerable road users visible from up to 400 metres away. This allows drivers to take preemptive action in advance if necessary.

  There can never be too many reflectors: they should ensure visibility from all sides. To achieve this, place them on visible areas of arms and legs, chest, and back. At the same time, reflectors should not be covered by clothing folds, a backpack or bag, or an umbrella. Also, periodically check their condition and replace them with new ones when worn out.

  Cyclists on rural roads at night are obliged to wear clothing or special vests with reflective inserts.

  A wide variety of reflector types are currently available: patches, stickers, and bands: flexible materials can be sewn on, glued to clothing, or attached with Velcro; keychains and pendants for bags, backpacks, or clothing; self-fastening bracelets attach to arms and legs; vests and reflective clothing are specialised items that ensure maximum visibility.

  Using reflective elements is an effective way to enhance your safety on the roads.
