HI VIZ - WHAT THE IRISH THINK

The Motorcycle Action Group (MAG) in Ireland did a survey of 800 riders mostly on high visibility clothing.

MAG is opposed to compulsory hi viz gear. So is the IRG. My first thought was that at night it's just as dark in Ireland but, by all accounts, they do not have as much light during the day as we do in OZ.

The launch by Victorian Roads Minister Mulder of the Graduated Licence Scheme (GLS) which includes compulsory dayglo vests and a lights-on law makes this survey relevant.

Your comments would be appreciated.
