Re: yellow safety vests

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

France requires drivers to have a yellow safety vest in their car in the event there is car trouble or other hazard/incident that stops them mid route. They put on the vest for emergency response, flics to see them, keep them visible to avoid further catastrophe.

Gilets Jaunes

Also symbol of middle class French.

Notice I did not use the term citizen because they have all those immigrants and so don’t know le terme proper.
