Thanks for your time.

Because an orange jacket won’t help anyone who isn’t looking, or who saw you and decided to go anyway – and that covers most motorists.

I’ve had two crashes. The first one the lady failed to see me, my lights, my St George’s flag (at her eye level) or the 6 foot long streamers in various primary colours above that. The other driver saw me, and he admitted it, and decided to drive at me on the wrong side of the road anyway!

Not all cars are bright orange (if they were then drab green would stand out well) but we manage not to bump into them…

Its interesting looking at the commuting cyclists that only a few wear helmets and even less wear yellow or orange jackets. I wonder why they dont just wear a florescent bib or waistcoat as you stand out far more, and with reduced daylight and dismal weather anything that helps motorists spot you has to be good.
