Safety.
Good for the road.
A Scout* cannot be overlooked. In the daytime and twilight the Scout typical orange-red fluorescent areas shine. And if it is very foggy or dark, a bright white reflecting fluorescent stripe offers maximum safety.
Safety in the daytime.
An orange-red fluorescent material on 20% of the front and side areas shine very visable during the daytime and twilight.
Luminance in the night.
Retro-reflective "fluorescent stripes" on at least 10% of the front and side areas of the satchel as well as retro-reflective stripes on the carrier straps reflect direct light back in the dark already from a big distance.
DIN-conform.
All Scout Basic* satchels have been manufactured according to the strict safety and quality requirements of DIN 58124: - 20% of the front and side areas are fluorescent and 10% retro-reflective.
The recommendation.
Stiftung Warentest advises to pay attention to safety with purchase of a satchel – and writes in issue 4/2009: „When it comes up to the well-being of the weakest in traffic then safety comes first. Only purchase a satchel which complies the satchel norm.“ – A good reason for Scout Basic satchels*: They have been manufactured after strict safety and quality requirements of DIN 58124.
