The article says "The study did not evaluate the clothing used by those involved in crashes." So I'm not sure what is being studied in this article. My state recently had a high visibility law proposed. It was defeated, or not voted on. It was for cyclists to wear high visibility, reflective clothing, at ALL times, day and night.

I tried to pull the study on LEXIS, but it is not published in a journal yet. I think the study just looked at accident rates pre and post-law. It apparently evaluated the success of the law rather than the success of conspicuous clothing.

That's the impression I got, too.
