Since January 1, lugging a high visibility vest in the trunk of his bike or scooter is obligatory under penalty of a fine of € 11 or € 135 in case of an emergency stop without this equipment on the back! The insurer Axa helps to equip free by distributing some 30,000 fluorescent vests in its branches and on its website Axa Prevention.
Although a safety vest does not cost very expensive is always better than nothing!
This initiative implemented by Axa Prevention and Club 14 will continue until 31 March and comes to echo the position of the insurer in favor of wearing the vest by the user 2 and 3-wheelers.
“The requirement to hold a vest is a factor in improving safety on motorcycles we support with 14 Club and we support with the free provision of 30,000 reflective vests. We are going even further since we recommend wearing the vest in case of rain, and the night to be better protected, “said Eric, President of AXA Prevention.
