IMHO, often we drive automatically, using the primitive part of the brain that was programmed by nature to recognise, without apparent thought, danger, threats and prey.
Often, as a motorcyclist, we are not seen.
I think this is because the driver has switched to automatic mode, and we don't pass the trigger point to "danger", so we are not handed on to the conscious part of the brain.
There is no doubt about it, HI-Vis works.
But.. it may just be that, for just a split second a drivers brain says "COP", and registers a danger.
Of course, once we all wear 'em that wont happen, we will be back to status quo !
So, please dont wear the gear, but don't laugh to loud at me if I do !
