Drivers Can’t Avoid What They Can’t See

🚗 Winter means:
• Earlier sunsets
• Reduced visibility
• More glare from headlights
• Harder conditions for drivers to spot pedestrians and runners

That’s why reflective gear matters so much during evening sessions.

A reflective vest or shirt can make you visible from far greater distances — giving motorists more time to react safely.

💡 Small safety habits make a huge difference:
✔ Reflective clothing
✔ Avoid dark outfits
✔ Stay aware of your surroundings
✔ Remove earphones when crossing roads

Let’s look after ourselves and each other this winter. 🟡

👟 Stay active. Stay visible. Stay safe.

Post 1: Be Seen. Be Safe.

🌙 Winter evenings are darker, and visibility on the road becomes more important than ever.

Whether you’re walking or running, drivers need to see you early enough to react safely.

✅ Wear reflective shirts or reflective vests
✅ Choose bright colours where possible
✅ Stay alert around intersections and driveways
✅ Run or walk facing oncoming traffic where safe to do so

Your safety always comes first. No session is worth taking unnecessary risks.

👕 Please remember to wear your reflective gear during evening sessions.

✨ Be visible. Be responsible. Be safe.

With winter here it is important to stay visible while out on the road. Wear your bib, use a headlight and make sure you are seen by vehicles.
