The safety vest with reflective tape: a new safety for bikers

At a time when we are talking about the bad numbers of road safety and the protection of motorcyclists, they will be able to equip themselves with a safety vest with advanced technology.

 

As the government tries to sensitize bikers to safety, especially with its new standards imposing the yellow reflective vest and homologated gloves, the Hi-Airbag Connect makes its appearance. Bikers themselves admit that driving in agglomeration is becoming more and more difficult and dangerous, so any new protection will be welcome. Because they already have complete equipment, from helmets to boots to a jacket with back protector, the airbag is an additional weight protection to limit the trauma of the spine.

 

There are already airbags, but these were equipped with a strap that had to be hung on the handlebars and sensors in strategic places. But this concept could be activated in case of false movement, the solution was not ideal. In addition, if the biker forgot to hang his waistcoat, this one had no more interest. With the Hi-Airbag Connect, everything is simpler. It is worn as a classic waistcoat in reflective fabric but has a microprocessor that analyzes all the movements of the motorcycle. If a behavior no longer corresponds to the recorded parameters, the gas cartridge is triggered and the airbag inflates in 120 milliseconds.

Yellow vest does not unanimously for the two-wheeler users Vosges

In a few months, the bikers will have the obligation to hold a vest and will even wear it in an emergency. This new measure is far from unanimous among users of two-wheelers.

 

The decree fell to the Official Gazette in May: from January 2016, all bikers will have a yellow reflective vest. From a practical standpoint, motorbike drivers will wear while driving or they stow it in a compartment of their motorcycle. A priori, the legislation still leaves them a little freedom. However, during an emergency stop of a two-wheeler, the law could not be clearer: users should wear this vest when he fined the edge of the roadway. Otherwise, the fine will be salty. Indeed, the offender will go to the fund by paying € 135 HP. And like motorists, if the rider performs outputs without having with him his tidy vest somewhere in his craft, again, it will pay cash his failure to do so: 11 €. That said, no deduction of points is expected. “Thank goodness,” is tempted to say many seeing bikers with skepticism the implementation of this decree. Moreover, departmental leaders of the French Federation of bikers angry (FFMC) does not mince words to mark their opposition to this new regulation, “If a yellow vest could save lives, we would know,” said Franck Noël, Vosges coordinator for the FFMC. The same man says studies have been conducted regarding the wearing of this famous vest. And according to him, the results speak for themselves: “It does not improve the visibility of motorcyclists on the roads. “Jean-Claude Martin and Christophe, respectively former coordinator and deputy secretary of the FFMC, this new outfit would even be a disadvantage:” There are already many people who wear these vests roadsides, including all those working for public works companies. Those worn by two-wheeler users would be drowned among others. ”

 

For Jean-Claude Martin, if the Inter ministerial Delegate for Road Safety has released this measure, it is only for one and the wrong reason: “If a good conscience.”He added a bit provocative:” I do not take him vest with me when I go out on a motorcycle. Just to see if it makes me a plum! “For Christophe, the decree is downright synonymous with financial waste. For him, if the state should invest money to make roads safer as much to do in more concrete things: “It would be more interesting than each rider gets help to buy a CE approved equipment.”

 

“As a sticker on a windshield”

Luc, President of Moto Club images, is on the same wavelength. He too is against the trivialization of this outfit: “Too many signals kill signaling,” says the manager but felt that motorists assimilate this vest, become too recurrent, in a vulgar sticker placed on a windshield. The notion of caution would be completely lost. Luc, the interest of this decree is tiny: “We will not wear this vest once it is down, having had an accident. Normally it should be used when we perform an emergency stop on the roadside. But on a 2 X 2-way, it’s not possible … At most, the safety vest can be useful if you need to signal danger and temporarily secure traffic at the scene of an accident in the meantime the forces of ‘order. ”

 

Obviously, the new measure is far from unanimous. And for many bikers, it does not address the causes of road accidents of two-wheelers. Suffice to say that the results of road safety, in the months following the implementation of the decree, will be scrutinized carefully…

The absence of yellow jacket costs 487 Euros to the conductive

In Amiens, it is verbalized for no yellow vest … Then to be out of her car at the time of control without yellow safety vest!

 

Amelia, 23, is angry. She does not know how to get out of this incredible situation.

It all starts the night of 25 January 2014. Around 15 pm 0, police gave him the order to stop his vehicle rue Charles, near the cinema in Amiens. She runs. “They asked me for my license, checked my insurance, etc. “Said the law student. Then “they asked me if I had my yellow vest. I look in the glove box, everywhere, I cannot find. One of the two policemen told me he might be in the trunk. I go out and checked, one of them illuminating the chest with his torch. “No yellow vest trace. The young woman is verbalized for this absence, and that of the security triangle, 90 euro fine.

 

The fine comes. She disputes the extent that she realized meanwhile that the triangle was good in the car, stored in a place provided for this purpose in the trunk. The protest is denied, the fine increases to 112 Euros. She rules.

 

On October 21, a new fine arrives in his mailbox: 375 Euros. “I did not know what it was!  “. Amelia went to the hotel taxes for more. “Being out of the immobilized vehicle on the roadway by driver unlined jacket compliant emergency stop.” Basically: be released without reflective vest to go check it was not his vest in the trunk! And the fine is increased…

 

The student went to the police to try to solve this problem, without result. She finally told his case to a lawyer.

Soon compulsory yellow vest in school transport

The County Council is considering, from the 2016 school year, to make the port due reflective vest to ride the bus. Meanwhile, an awareness campaign will be launched. What do you think?

 

I n September 2010, the County Council endowed students via departmental lines of school transport a fluorescent safety vest. Five years later, it is clear that the yellow vest with reflective tape remains mostly in the binders that is endorsed by the college … This measure is nevertheless part of a program to strengthen the security of 12,000 students Lot- et-Garonne delivered daily to their establishment.

 

Publicity

Partnership with SU Agen

The Departmental Youth Council had the idea of an awareness campaign in partnership with SUA. Five players (George, Taylor Paris, Quentin Bethune Pierre and Corentin) therefore posed alongside twenty young departmental advisers, to encourage students to wear the vest.

 

Nicolas Lacombe, vice president of the County Council in charge of school transport, and Laurence, Vice President in charge of citizenship, also were on hand Tuesday in the stands of the stadium, which hosted the photo session serve to illustrate posters and flyers that will soon be distributed in the schools of the department.

 

But the tone might harden from the school year 2016, since the County Council is considering making the wearing of the safety vest payable as well as the school board to ride the bus.

Yellow vests and gloves approved: new obligations for bikers

In principle already in the trunk of any car since 2008, the yellow reflective vest will also have to find prominently in the top case s of motorcycles. Beginning this January 1 and under penalty of a 1st class ticket (17 Euros), moped users, scooters and motorcycles will, indeed, be holders of this equipment. They must wear it only during emergency stops. And in case of non-compliance, they will face a fine range, this time to 135 Euros.

 

This measure designed to make it more visible this category of user closes for now the long debates on this vest that bikers came close to having to take permanently wheelchair. The decision was even announced in 2011 during a committee on road safety (IRB) before a turnaround in 2012 under pressure from his many opponents … actually, almost majority of PTW users. “Motorists forget that one exists. Then they probably would not have seen we better with a permanent fluorescent held on the back, “said Marc Bertrand, in charge of Road Safety at the French Federation of Angry Bikers (FFMC). Satisfied with the abandonment of the previous provision, it remains unsatisfied with this new choice. “It is better convinced of the relevance of that measure to force it through sanctions, as has been decided,” he said.

 

Yet another mandatory provision will affect that category of users: they will soon have to wear approved gloves with reflective tape. In preparation for the Council of State decree is expected in the coming days. This new provision does not find more favor with the FFMC. “For years we are campaigning for the reduction of VAT on motorcycle equipment to facilitate their purchase. This is what is expected to better protect this category, “said Marc Bertrand. In 2014, among users of motorized two-wheelers, the road was 22,000 wounded and killed 790 people.

 

The case of “urban scooter”

If the bikers did not wait for the next issue of the decree to develop gloves, this is not always the case among the ‘urban scooter.” “They are former drivers who do not feel the soul of bikers!” To avoid traffic jams, many of them have indeed swapped four wheels for two-wheelers without changing the “dress code”. “They refuse to equipment that would protect them, but we must convince them to do it,” insists the responsible road safety association, which welcomes another measure: from 1 February as part of an experiment four years, the motorcycles in safety vest will be able to travel between two lines of cars under certain conditions in Île-de-France, Gironde and the Rhône. A practice is already widespread particularly on the Paris ring. But, as recognized, this mode of driving will be taught in driving schools.

Enough to give a smile to the organizers pleased to welcome all fans of cycling in safety vest. “We made this event not only for us, it is open to all,” explained president of bicycle.

 

A new operation “Bike to Work”

People are also very sensitive to the health aspect, “said Gerard, reminiscent of the great success of the operation” Bike to work”, organized last spring. “We expected to have 150 people, we saw almost 500. Many people came to the bike with that. “And be pleased to know that the operation will be repeated in the month of May.

 

Routes and car parks

Bicycle continues to actively advocate for the development of cycle routes and facilities. “Take the connection between Lannion and Guirec. Where you go? There is the old railway line, which is 12 km. But it lacks a reflective tape markup; there are some intersections to be processed for safety, particularly in Petit Camp, and the roundabout at the entrance. We have to come to put around the table Community Department. “Efforts are also underway to develop a secure covered car parking near the train station and other near bus stops, the head of the lines.”The public are increasingly sensitive. Things have changed in ten years. But we have going at top speed, there is an ambition. “In short, do not necessarily play slow race, as one of the activities offered yesterday afternoon.

Hip to reduce the burden on the tension of the reflective material with support software introduction

NIPPO is 29 days, in pavement construction and asphalt materials for the plant, announced the introduction of the support software that can reduce the burden of the hip due to the work. Agriculture and logistics, to the lumbar support wear of Morita Holdings with a proven track record in the nursing care field “rakunie (Rakunie)”, adopted a new model fitted with a cover-type reflective material the company has proposed. Reduce the fatigue accumulation in such work and transport at room temperature when material in the kneeling position to use the dragonfly and the scoop. Safety vest marked with a reflective material to wear in outdoor work also becomes unnecessary.

The company as one of the working environment improvement measures starts the test introduction of fatigue mitigation suit in 2002. Paver, product manufacturing, such as to about 50 people, including a woman in charge of the testing operations asked to wear a plurality of types of suits such as a motor-driven or compressed air type, it was evaluated in the assist force and a feeling of wear.

Paving work, in addition to often work in the kneeling position, crouching, such as marking work and operation of the machine, one is working posture is different depending on the contents in the work you do in one day. For this reason, it was decided to adopt the wearing feeling and desorption of labor is less Rakunie.

For this reason, we proposed a reflective material of the cover expression that can be retrofitted in the fastener to Morita Holdings. Increasing the visibility of the night worker, also improved the safety of the work.

Reputation of the new model is the very best, the person who was wearing in a total material factory is referred to as “the fatigue accumulation is small; it has become a necessity not do without.” Aida Engineering Division General Engineering Department production machinery center machine development manager has been with the “I want to continue to provide appropriate to a person in need.”

Safety vest: attention to road accidents

The last weekend of October is already here and its transition to winter time too. Surely we gain an hour of sleep though a spate of road accidents was recorded, because it can’t be seen clearly without safety vest in dimly light.

In the night from Saturday to Sunday at 3 am it will be 2 hours. The day will dawn sooner but the blues Sunday night will come a little earlier than usual with the dusk to 17 pm 30 …

 

Yet an additional hour of sleep clearly not enough to recover from this time change since a study of the Public Security Directorate has been an increase in the number of road accidents the following week.

 

The peak accident rate and mortality was noted in 8 slices / 10h and 17h / 21h or at peak hours. More people on the roads and a reduced visibility in the dark that accentuates are the main causes. Pedestrians, cyclists, motorists, everyone would be concerned. A reflective vest can enhance visibility and make you safer effect with more effective.

 

Fatigue may also be a cause of this accident rate increased, since chronobiologists noted that this time change would be more harmful to the body than the time difference when traveling. Sleep, diet and mood would change the point of seeing a 5% increase in myocardial week after the transition to winter time.

 

To reduce these risks, we should anticipate by lying earlier a few days before, by drinking plenty of water, enjoy the sunshine, make cure magnesium and vitamins.

 

Road Safety recommends “choose bright clothing or better still with retro reflective tapes.” It is strongly recommended that cyclists wear a reflective safety vest even if it is not required (except when driving outside urban areas at night or in low visibility day).

 

Motorists should be vigilant, reduce speed and “beware of” black holes “, these passages from a lighted area to a darker area where a pedestrian may arise, and finally to deviate from the sidewalks as much as possible.”
