I had safety clothing as a kid. I had a lovely coat, with built in reflector lstrips which I adored. It was super bright, it was a nice red colour. And I was like "b*tch, I'm fabulous!" (well, not in so many words cause I didn't know those words back then).
The fact is, this message of wearing bright coats and reflector strips have been out and about for donkey years.
And there are plenty of ads that show drivers driving too fast and the consequences.

Ugly! It's 180 degrees wrongheaded.
Make the most vulnerable people responsible, blame the victim, convince kids they can't lead a normal life without SAFETY CLOTHING. Our kids are already under virtual house-arrest, not allowed to play in their own streets: OUR STREETS SHOULD BE FOR OUR KIDS WHO LIVE IN THEM, not for strangers passing through in a hurry.
Why is this ad not aimed at the elephant in the room - drivers who are driving too fast to stop in time under such conditions?

It gets the message across well - because it scares children! The hedgehog one was alot more child-friendly.
