• The most frequent cause of accidents involving pedestrians on motorways and roads is people leaving their vehicles without thinking after a breakdown or accident. Few people think of their own personal safety in these situations, either because they are in a state of shock caused by the accident or because they are still angry about the breakdown.

• Assisting at the scene of an accident, setting up a warning triangle, changing a tyre or walking to an emergency telephone are all particularly dangerous in the dark, when you cannot be seen easily. The last thing car and lorry drivers expect to encounter on the motorway is pedestrians, even if they are only on the hard shoulder.

• According to the BGF (German Vehicle Operators Trade Association), it is mandatory for company vehicles used for business to carry a high-visibility vest.

• Insurance experts strongly advise motorcycle riders and car drivers to buy a hi-vis jacket for their vehicles - for the sake of their own safety!
