Rear reflectors...

[Bob Culver]

Whatever the legalities, I have long been an advocate of large low mounted reflectors on any car, and especially old cars with modest lighting and likely to be encountered at large speed differences. I have followed my cars and at a distance the fluctuating reflectors certainly draw attention. Unlike Seven drivers, modern motorists are mostly half asleep and often preoccupied with a myriad dashboard and in car diversions and mirrors. Reflectors light up suddenly when the modern sharp topped dip illuminates and the flash tends to alert the driver. Demountable reflectors often solve the appearance problem. But distance tends to be misjudged unless wide spaced.
