The danger starts right on your doorstep!
Just taking your dog for a walk round the corner? Only popping to the local store for a couple of essentials, or just taking the children to school? We are all pedestrians at some time! Traffic accidents take place on our own doorstep as well as further afield!
What are the odds of you not being hit by a car?
What are the odds of you winning the lottery? What are the odds of being hit by a car? Mathematical probabilities alone must surely provoke us into wanting to protect ourselves from the latter! We can all improve our chances in traffic by ensuring we're more visible by wearing Glozone™ personal reflective high-viz accessories! We're just not visible enough without!
Imagine being struck by a ton of steel!
Ads on TV remind us as motorists to look twice, and yet again, for motorcyclists (and cyclists!). And rightly so. Now, why do you think motorcyclists (you've seen them, haven't you?) ride with full headlights in broad daylight, even at the height of summer? To be seen by others on the road! It's one of the few things they can do to increase their level of personal safety on the road. You must also surely have noticed that more and more cars in the last decade or two use headligths on sunny days (They're called "Day-lights"). This is for the very same reason - None of us want to be involved in a road accident. Well, if motorists take steps to enhance their visibility (who are effectively sitting inside a steel cage!), then surely we must, as pedestrians or cyclists, seek to be more visible in traffic too! We are after all, a lot more fragile than steel cages!
Unlike a car our bodies are our bumpers!
Darkness. From October to April,mornings and evenings alike, (even afternoons) can be in darkness. This means that most of us go to work and leave work in the dark. Children go to school and home again in the dark. College and University students also to and fro in the dark. But it's not just the winter half of year that calls for wearing Glozone™ hi-viz personal reflective accessories for road safety! A badly lit day, with rain or fog, is quite typical of spring and early autumn. It can even occur at the height of summer! You know the sort of day; it may be early morning or mid-afternoon, and cars can be seen with headlights on - Yes, in the middle of summer! They drive with their headlights on, not to see better, but to be more visible to other vehicles and pedestrians alike.
As both pedestrians and cyclists, we can wear Glozone™ high visibility personal reflective accessories and reflect their headlights right back at them. We'd stand out like beacons in poor visibility! After all, people are more vulnerable than cars and other vehicles - Our bodies are our bumpers!
Protect Mums with buggies and prams!
It is very important that a personal reflective accessory - like any accessory, is to hand. Quite frankly, there should be a Glozone™ hi-vis reflective slap wrap, or similar, in every coat or jacket pocket.
They would also greatly improve the visibility of baby's pram and a toddler's buggy. Have you noticed that the pram or buggy tends to cross the road at arms length ahead of the mother!?
Health and Safety: Obesity and Co2!
We are all encouraged to walk more for a healthier lifestyle these days; taking the bicycle even, and leave the car for those times when we cannot practically do without. Improving our personal safety in traffic means we may benefit from the daily exercise we all need. And without fear or insecurity in traffic we'd be happy to walk or go running more - and more often too.This can also help combat obesity - another area of concern in today's society. Furthermore, it positively encourages a reduction of Co2 emissions from less use of our cars! Now there's a "win-win"!
No, it's not compulsory - Yet! But are you covered?
Car insurance aside as it's compulsory, but why do most of us carry insurance of any kind? To protect ourselves should the worst happen, surely.
Once we appreciate the benefits of insurance, we don't willingly let the policy lapse, nor do we delay taking out a policy in order to save a few months' premiums. We're either covered or we're not!
If you, like me, appreciate that Glozone™ personal high viz reflective accessories can greatly enhance people's chances in traffic, then I'm inviting you to contact us in order for you to make a difference in your own community.
