So you think that this is safety ??

And next wrap us in cotton wool and put a strobe on every ones head..........and then make every one use dark protective glasses in case of eye damage from the bright strobe lights.

When ever is this safety sh1t going to stop !!!!!! , the greatest aid to safety is common sence if you think that a dayglo jacket will save you from a driver who is not looking forget it.

I worked on the ramp at LHR for over ten years without the dayglo thing and not a problem.
When the health and safety numpteys finaly forced me to put on one of the stupid things the very first time I wore the thing I was almost run down by a van at 0600 in day light at Jersey !!!!.

On a dark rainy night I can see the use for these things but on a bright summers day they are a waist of time and money .
