Why only cyclists should wear hi-viz in the dark? Cars can too! - eviltoast

Edit: to clarify: the message in the ad is actually ironic/satirical, mocking the advice for cyclists to wear high-viz at night.

It uses the same logic but inverts the parts and responsabilities, by suggesting to motorists (not cyclists) to apply bright paint on their cars.

So this ad is not pro or against high-viz, it’s against victim blaming

    You must live a really really weird life. I dunno if it’s ultra sad or not, but it’s definitely a bizarre worldview to wake up and think “everyone chosing to go to work in the only way available to them for most of the country is basically spraying an ak-47 everywhere they go” You can work to change that – great, all for it. But presuming the world where you’ve already won is absolutely bonkers.
