Walking at night? Be safe!

Even if you're dressed in light clothes, it's hard to see pedestrians at night. Make sure cars see you by wearing a reflective walking vest.

No longer just for the hardcore night joggers, reflective safety vests are becoming a mainstream accessory for anyone who is out and about early in the morning or at night.

Better safe than sorry.

Should pedestrians be required to don safety gear?

No way, it's my right to walk where ever!

It's not a bad idea to be safe.
