How can you increase your visibility to other drivers?

Wearing bright or reflective clothing significantly enhances your visibility to other drivers. This is particularly important for motorcyclists, as they are smaller and less visible than cars and trucks. Bright colors and reflective materials catch the attention of drivers, especially in low-light conditions or inclement weather, making it easier for them to notice you on the road.

Other strategies such as using fog lights during the day can improve visibility in specific conditions, but wearing the right clothing applies universally across all riding situations. Riding in the center of the lane can alter your position relative to other vehicles but doesn’t enhance your visibility as effectively as wearing bright gear. Maintaining a high speed may actually reduce the chances of being seen by other drivers and can lead to greater risk of accidents. Therefore, choosing to wear bright or reflective clothing is a straightforward and impactful method to ensure you are seen by others on the road.
