Are You Visible or Invisible?

Split screen shows that runners with reflective gear on are visible to drivers at 400 feet whereas runners without reflective gear cannot be seen at all.

How many runners do you see in the picture above?

There are 6 – but three are invisible at 400 feet in a car’s headlights.

The ones that can be seen are wearing reflective gear. The others just have on brightly colored shirts.

Watch this video to see the contrast between visible and invisible runners:

To help make sure drivers see you when you’re a pedestrian, make sure you wear reflective gear.

You can help us get the word out – share this video with family and friends who run, walk or ride.

Be safe, be seen!
