Where does the yellow vest come from?
The "yellow vest" or high-visibility vest was invented during the Second World War by the American Bob Switzer to dress construction workers. This entrepreneur had used as his first prototype the wedding dress of his wife on which he had affixed a mixture of paint and fluorescent minerals. In France, this garment is now worn by workers on construction sites, by some security agents, and since 2008 by all motorists.
On the road, a driver who does not have his reflective clothing with himself is liable to a violation of the fourth class: a fixed fine of 135 € and a fine minus 90 €. "It's yellow, it's ugly, it does not go with anything, but it can save your life", said the famous fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld in a road safety, in 2008: After all, this yellow vest is not created to be beautiful. It is meant to be seen.
