Written Question
Motorcycles: Safety
Wednesday 2nd May 2018

Asked by: Vicky Ford (Conservative - Chelmsford)

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether his Department has plans to (a) bring forward legislative proposals to make compulsory and (b) promote the use of reflective or fluorescent clothing for motorbike riders.

Answered by Jesse Norman - Shadow Leader of the House of Commons

The Government already advises motorcyclists to wear high visibility clothing - Rules 86 and 87 of the Highway Code includes the advice to “wear a light or brightly coloured helmet and fluorescent clothing or strips, in daylight” and “wear reflective clothing or strips to improve your visibility in the dark”.

The Government has no plans to bring forward proposals to make compulsory the use of reflective or fluorescent clothing for motorcyclists.
