Commuter cyclist overtrouses

A pair of waterproof overtrouses in a bright colour with reflective piping.
Nearly all waterproof overtrousers for cyclists are black, which may be fine if riding off road, but on the road you need to be visible.  Car headlights point downwards, so they illuminate cyclists’ legs well.  This product will make commuting cyclists more visible and save lives.

Think i saw this product on Dragons den night before last? .  It would most likley be cheap to manufacture. And make you more visable, if it saves a life its worth while in my eyes. The only issue i can see is it would be easy to copy the idea without some sort of protection.

Night Vision over trousers by Altura does just that. Matching jacket to go with them, so popular they were out of stock for a lot of last winter.
