The problem seems to be with some car drivers that are

Without knowing how you ride or where you ride it is difficult
to offer advice but there might still be something you could do
to help make yourself look bigger.

Yes - pink hi-viz.


Wrong. And not for aesthetic reasons.


What is your reasoning?


I gave it in an earlier post.

Does hi-viz not work? If not, you'd better tell the authorities.
And give them a better explanation than you're about to post here.


Depends on what they hoped to achieve with it and on whether they have
actually achieved it. I have no idea what the original reasoning was,
other than that the culture of putting hi-viz on everything and fairy
lights on vehicles has become indistinguishable from religion.
