When must a driver wear the reflective vest?
Preventive and Efficient Driving – Observation and Fuel Saving
Explanation
To ensure **road safety** on interurban roads, it is mandatory for drivers to wear a **reflective vest** when they exit the vehicle and occupy the roadway. This is because on these roads, which are outside towns or cities, visibility can be reduced, especially at night or in low light conditions.
- The reflective vest is a **luminous element** that allows drivers to be visible from a distance of 150 meters, which is crucial to prevent accidents.
- On interurban roads, pedestrians and drivers must take additional precautions due to the **higher speed** of vehicles and the lack of adequate lighting compared to urban roads.
Therefore, wearing a reflective vest in these situations is an essential safety measure to protect both the driver and other road users.
