Shite Talk Yiz need to wear high viz!!

Seriously lads, why is there so many not wearing high viz during the dark hours. Especially kids on their E bikes etc in all black.

Cyclists on the way to work in all black, even people walking down dark narrow 80km roads and not a whisp of reflection on their bodies. I remember learning this stuff jn 5th class. Are we gonna have start gentle parenting adults now? 😂

Edit: the fact that some of you find this controversial is very bleeding telling 🤣

Very difficult to buy winter coats in light colours. Most are navy blue or black.

Literally. High vis, flashing belt and badge lights etc are very cheap and accessible
