Guest Chas Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 I know the law now requires that high visibility jackets are to be carried and if the need arises, to be used in Spain. Is this a legal requirement in any other European country? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pete walker Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 hi chas, i have heard that italy is now or will be shortly. but i feel that if you buy one you might as well use it. pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mel E Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 We bought a couple for each car, the motorhome and the plane last time we were in Spain - because of the demand, they're really cheap there in hypermarkets - about 4 Euros each. Since I workde for British Rail in the 70s, I've always had a high vis jacket in the car and would not be without. Far too many people are killed while standing on/near motorwayhard shoulders.

Guest PeteC Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 Agree with MelE With mororway accidents and the high speed of cars now it is in your own interests to wear a HV vest or coat whenever you are out of the van on the highway We carry 2 vests that can be worn over our normal clothes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mike Posted March 18, 2005 Share Posted March 18, 2005 Common sense must prevail! Buy one and wear it when out on the road at anytime of day. It saves lives. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
