Wearing reflective clothes is very helpful whilst cycling as it is bright and this will cause less accidents to take place.

It also helps drivers to see cycle's at night so there would be fewer accidents and injuries.

Part of the surface of the garment may have retro reflective stripes. This way they become much more visible in the dark for observers near a light source, such as the driver of a car with its headlights on. The pattern of the retro reflecting parts also helps to distinguish between objects and people.

VIZZIBL Reflective Clothing uses 3M Scotchlite film, the world's best reflective material. Our clothing uses retroreflection technology. When a car's headlights illuminate one of our shirts, the 3M film sends the reflection of the light right back to the driver. The reflective film on our clothing "lights up" making you visible to the driver. In low light or complete darkness, VIZZIBL clothing can make you safer. Be VIZZIBL tonight.

How does reflective clothing work?

Reflective clothing uses retroreflection to provide high visibility at night. Fabric is coated with special silvered inks; then prisms or beads are applied on top of these inks. When a light source shines on the fabric, the ink and the prisms reflect the light back to its source. If beads are used, the light is also concentrated, so it appears even brighter. An important characteristic of reflective clothing is that only viewers in the line of sight of the light source see the brightly illuminated fabric. In other words, the motorist whose headlights light up the person wearing reflective clothing will clearly see that person, but motorists travelling on unrelated routes will not. This means reflective clothing is defining, not distracting. Reflective clothing increases the safety of runners, pedestrians, bicyclists and road construction workers, as well as drivers, by providing motorists more time and distance to avoid collisions.
