[SAFETY] - 5 TIPS TO BE MORE VISIBLE ON THE ROAD

How can you increase your visibility in the eyes of motorists?

 1. Wear light-coloured clothes and bright colours 

 Stop dressing like Men in Black. We all remember the biker dressed in black leather who looked so cool on his black bike in some movie or other, but in real life, riding in dark clothing is rather dangerous during the day and downright suicidal at night.

Whenever possible, ride with white or brightly coloured equipment(jacket, helmet, etc.) to attract the attention of other riders. 

2. Wear a reflective waistcoat 

During the day, it's just a little extra that you can do without, but at night it's vital. Wearing a reflective waistcoat allows you to make your body visible in the dark to other road users, who will be more vigilant.

3. Make your vehicle visible

There is now a whole range of stickers and other accessories to stick or fix on your vehicles. Whether you ride a wheel, a bike, a scooter or even a rollerblade, you can always find an accessory that suits you by looking around.

4. Wear portable turn signals

And yes, it does exist! In terms of safety, the portable indicator is definitely a Must Have! Practical, you don't have to reach out to indicate your direction, and above all it's an attention magnet! All eyes are riveted on it, so you can be sure of perfect visibility!

5. Become a Christmas tree

This is a bit of a crazy tip, but it's a very good one for anyone who drives in the countryside on really poorly lit roads. There are now USB Christmas lights, so all you have to do is get an external battery and plug in the lights you have wrapped around you! Effect and efficiency guaranteed on the country roads.

As prevention is better than cure, be careful, especially at night, and be bright!
