How to become more visible in the dark

"In winter, the number of accidents involving pedestrians increases. This is because it gets dark earlier, and it becomes much more difficult to see people on the road. Dark things on pedestrians are the main problem," says auto blogger Vladislav Antonov.

 

"Most of the fatal accidents where a person dies occur at night near pedestrian crossings. People who were hit, most often in dark clothes, in black, it’s very difficult to notice them," the expert says.

 

News "Today" decided to ask people about how they make themselves visible on the road. The answers were not very encouraging:

 

"Well, I don't know, some luminous objects in my hands. In general, to draw attention to yourself."

 

"A light scarf on the neck to be seen, more or less. Something light is necessary for it to be on oneself."

 

"Well, you have to wear reflective vests."

 

The Ukrtranscurity noted: in order not to become victims of an accident, you must have reflective fabric elements on your clothes or wear special vests:

 

"Just in an ordinary pocket, we have such a tape that turns into such a kit that you can put on instead of a vest and a person will be sure that they will see him for 300 meters, or even more."

 

Such vests cost about 60 hryvnias. Size is universal. But the easiest way to protect your movement in the dark - special bracelets. The price of one is only 30 hryvnias.

 

"An ordinary reflective bracelet that a person puts on and becomes noticeable on the road," experts explain.

 

Such simple safety measures can make a person more visible and protect from trouble.
