Pedestrians should be easy to see for other road users. This is ensured by reflective clothing in the dark. The best effect is achieved by the right headgear.
If motorists ignore pedestrians, usually because of their clothes, experts recommend using reflective materials.
Not only cyclists but also pedestrians are safer in the dark season when they wear clothes with as many and large reflective surfaces.
Especially recommended for those who are on foot, be a reflective cap, advises the German Society for Orthopedics and Traumatology DGOU). Take care of the highest part of the body for good visibility from all sides. But even with textiles and safety vests pedestrians can increase their visibility. Accessories such as reflective belts or stickers for everyday wear also make the dark season safer for pedestrians.
