--- Quote from: Nurse Julie on February 15, 2017, 08:27:17 AM ---I find the problem with hi vis jackets these days is they are used by so many people for no apparent reason that they have lost their meaning. When you only saw people wearing them who were in a situation of danger, they stood out, not any more, they just mingle in with all the others that wear them as a fashion statement. And as for those hi vis jackets that have POLITE emblazoned on the back, making it look like POLICE, they really are stupid.
--- End quote ---
(POLITE)That's usually horse riders. We have a couple near me who also put a blue flashing light under the saddle belt. I thought impersonating a police officer was an offence. Plus, who the hell keeps horses in the middle of a town (Steptoe finished years ago).
Nurse Julie:
Agree Roy but bike riders also wear them, their choice and right I know but they look bloody stupid.
mike the bike:
I agree with Julie's comment about Hi Viz being so ubiquitous that it loses it's impact. I've got a hi viz Stanley knife in my toolbox, marketed as 'easy to find'. Can't argue with that, it is easy to find. It wouldn't be easy to find if all my tools were hi viz though.
Tomb:
;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Nice one Tomb! Couldn't agree more!!
Threads sometimes do this, but hopefully cantarauk can weed through the posts and get some useful information to answer his original question.
Tomb's earlier post with the MOT Testers handbook links could certainly be useful.
