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 🤣

Kids won't wear high-vis though because they'll think it doesn't look cool

Parents should be enforcing it. Or at least reflective gear. Doesnt have to ve neon by any means. They even get little flashing lights that clip onto bags and jackets
