My mate followed the advice of the old 1960s advert and wore "something white at night"
He got run over by a snow plough
The older I get, the better I was
Advice is what we seek when we already know the answer - but wish we didn't

You probably wouldn't want to wear a Hi-Viz vest when operating harvesting machinery in a rapeseed field though.

I used to work in a factory where all the fork lift drivers had to wear a viz. None of the pedestrian traffic, just those sitting on five ton, bright orange machines with a rotating flashing light on the top. No one could work it out.
God is nothing more than an imaginary friend for grown ups.

Just guessing, like.
I am a driving instructor and there is no regulation that we have to wear any thing.
As someone else has pointed out driving examiners have to wear them. But only if they do not have a car park at the test centre. If they set of on a public road they are supposed to wear one.

I don't know what bus drivers and conductors did in the days before Hi-Viz was invented, it must have been like a scene from a slaughterhouse in Headingley bus depot every day.
