Figured out how to be noticeable on a bike

I hustle to repair a house in a village by bicycle, six kilometers of the way and on the spot. Nature, clean air, warm-up before work, everything seems to be fine. Only drive on a narrow trackwhere there is very heavy traffic, really dangerous.

Look at the meager width of the road, cars can move in rows, five to six cars each, these are cars, and often buses and even road trains slip by. Part of the way I try to drive along the side of the road, it is inconvenient, but safe.

Now more noticeable

I put reflectors on my bike, which is good, though not enough to be seen, I use a headlamp at night.

A friend, an experienced driver suggested using a signal vest, the idea seemed to be good. Yes, and train drivers once wrote that railway workers in these vests can be seen a mile away. I bought it and started using it. Only it is not always convenient to put it on yourself, in summer it is hot, but in the cold it is too small, and does not fit on outerwear. The idea came up unexpectedly

I always carry a bag with tools on the trunk, decided to just wrap it in a vest.

The effect manifested itself immediately, drivers began to notice from afar, began to slow down in advance, and go around with a solid margin, what is needed.

Winding the bag every time is also not an option, there is a thought, he can cut the vest and sew it, What do you think?
