Bright clothes and reflectors are important in winter


When we walk or cycle in the dark season, we should not dress too dark. Instead, we should wear light or reflective clothing.

This helps prevent accidents because it makes us easier to see - says the police. Because in winter almost twice as many accidents happen nationwide than in the bright season. Anyone traveling in dark clothes in the evening will only be seen by motorists from a distance of almost 25 meters. With light clothes and reflective tape for clothing, we are already seen from twice the distance.

And: who wears a safety vest is already seen from almost 130 meters. Especially schoolchildren, cyclists, and pedestrians should wear reflective clothing early in the morning and in the evening.
