Key Benefits of Reflective Tape

Investing in high-quality reflective tape from Traffic Safety Store delivers measurable safety and compliance advantages:

• Enhanced Visibility: Reflective tapes make vehicles and equipment highly noticeable in low-light, fog, rain, or nighttime conditions.
• Accident Prevention: Studies, including those by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, show that reflective tape can prevent thousands of accidents annually.
• Regulatory Compliance: Our DOT-C2 and FMVSS-compliant tapes ensure your vehicles meet federal safety standards, avoiding fines and enhancing legal compliance.
• Durability: Weather-resistant and UV-stabilized, our tapes maintain reflectivity even in harsh conditions, with warranties up to 10 years.

Applications and Compliance

Reflective tape is essential for a variety of vehicles and settings. For heavy trucks and trailers, DOT-C2 tape must be applied in specific locations, such as the sides, rear lower body, and upper rear corners, often in strips or chevron patterns. School buses benefit from specialized yellow conspicuity tape to mark emergency exits and enhance visibility. Proper application is key to maximizing visibility and compliance. For example, DOT-C2 tape must cover at least 50% of a trailer’s length and be placed between 15 and 60 inches above the road.
