The Mendoza legislator presented a project to make the wearing and use of reflective vests<\/em><\/strong> for motorists, motorcycles, and bicycles mandatory.<\/p>\n

Senator Julio Cobos presented in the Senate a bill to make the wearing and use of reflective vests mandatory for drivers of motor vehicles, motorcycles, and bicycles; within the framework of the Traffic Law of the Argentine Republic.<\/p>\n

The radical legislator explained that they seek to establish the obligation for motor vehicles of the carrying and use of reflective vest with reflective tape<\/em><\/strong><\/a> for drivers and any of its occupants, who must use it when descending from the car in cases of a road emergency when they must stop at unlicensed places. In the case of cyclists and motorcyclists, the obligation of use is also established whenever they are on board the vehicle.<\/p>\n

The senator from Mendoza stressed that “it is important to take measures to improve road safety since in our country around 7,200 people die in traffic accidents a year. The use of the reflective vest with reflective material<\/em><\/strong> helps to reduce these figures, given that it is proven that more vision time implies a longer reaction time of the motorist. A person with the reflective vest on is visible from more than 150 meters and with high lights even from about 400 meters. ”<\/p>\n

Finally, Cobos said that “international experience shows that wearing reflective vests is very important in road safety and that it helps to safeguard the lives and integrity of people.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Mendoza legislator presented a project to make the wearing and use of reflective vests for motorists, motorcycles, and bicycles mandatory.
