    I tried one of those. It was not a success. It did enhance visibility, and several people commented on it but there were problems.

    The fabric frayed and ravelled very quickly at speed. Over 100kph it started to disintegrate. Finally it blew off and disappeared at around 160.

    Also, at speed in buffeting winds the pole it was mounted on whipped about most alarmingly

    I cannot recommend them.

    Perhaps Mr Carver could douse himself in petrol and set himself afire? That would be at least as visible as a hi-vis vest? Just a helpful suggestion, I'm like that.

    use a steel pole, and painted metal flag (sharp edges are a must)
    Then I could get a Kb Tshirt, move to Timaru and become a full time crossdressing faggot

    Would you like an ACC one that has "Watch out for Motorcyclists" on the back? I can try and get you one if you like, what size are you?

    Arguing with an Engineer is like wrestling a pig in mud.

    After a while you realise the pig is enjoying it.
