who dons the day-glo

After working utility construction where I was required to wear yellow vests and EMS where I have to wear one while working wrecks I have concluded that high visibility stuff is just to make it easier to find the body.

What I've considered though I don't know the legality of it is putting some bicycle leds on a couple spots on my bike. Specifically the front of the bike. I use a ton of them on my commuter bicycle and even in Atlanta cars move over a mile back to avoid me.

But high viz stuff can't hurt.
