8B -- Solving The Problem

Scooters are unsafe -- that's a given. As a scooter driver myself, I always keep my eye out for other drivers on the road that could easily injure me if they bump into me because in a collision between a scooter and a car, let's be real, the car is going to win. Now in order to make scooter driving easier and to solve the problem of "Scooter drivers not being seen by car drivers" the inclusion of highly reflective surfaces onto scooters as well as the possibility of reflective helmets will help a lot with having scooter drivers be more noticeable. Gone are the days of driving cars and not seeing that scooter driver in your blind spot because the scooter driver will be covered in highly reflective strips of material that will make it nearly impossible to miss. I know that the bright yellow of reflective strips isn't really "fashionable" but what about highly reflective jackets that are made out of more fashionable material because there are jackets out there like that. If we incorporate more reflective material into the clothing that we wear when we ride our scooters then I believe that the road will become a much safer place for both scooter and car drivers.
