In addition to our common reflective clothing and reflective vests, the reflective materials also have reflective strips attached to the body of the truck. Recently, when the police from the three major teams of the Hefei Traffic Police inspected passing vehicles on Changjiang East Road, they discovered that many large trucks had inadequate reflective markings.

A driver explained to the police that because it had rained and just unloaded the cargo, he couldn't take care of the reflective strips. After further inspection, the police found that the large truck below could not even find the shadow of the reflective strip. In order to protect the cargo, the driver completely "hidden" the reflective strips by covering the sheet tightly. The driver’s method of protecting the cargo is understandable, but more attention should be paid to the safety of the road. Such a tight and solid cover does not know how big a safety hazard is.

According to the police, the visibility is low at night and the driver's field of vision is narrow. Therefore, police and sanitation workers working on the road will wear reflective vests, and trucks are required to affix reflective signs. If the car body does not have reflective markings, it will be very dangerous, especially when the vehicle breaks down or there are traffic violations such as speeding or fatigue driving behind the car. Drivers slow down in advance to maintain the distance between vehicles to prevent or reduce traffic accidents caused by rear-end collisions or side collisions at night or under low visibility conditions.
