    If someone has trouble seeing cyclists who have all the required visibility measures

    That was the point I was making. Cyclists SHOULD be wearing/using all of these at night/in the rain, for everyone’s safety.

    If you can’t see cyclists during the day in fair weather without them wearing a hi-vis vest, you shouldn’t be driving. I think we’re on the same page there.

      Wouldn’t it make walkers and animals less safe because they’re not wearing them and motorists will be looking for hi-vis instead of ordinary people and animals. It might make motorists less safe too, because fallen trees and shed loads won’t have hi-vis on but hitting them will still kill some drivers and passengers.
