[QUOTE="UPSGUY72, post: 914987, member: 14514"] The use of safety vest in the yard is related to the fact that each person in the yard is doing something different and thus might not being totally aware of everything that is happening in the yard at any given time. The Vest makes the person wearing it stick out not blend in with the surrounding thus making them more visible to other people in the yard that might not be aware that someone else is in that location. For us package car drivers we have more control over the situation at each stop we deliver at night (house calls ). We park on the side of the road and 90 percent of the time don't have to cross the road. If we do it's behind the car and again we wait till the traffic has cleared then cross. We have control because we can see what is happening around us and make adjustments. In the yard a person might be doing something else and not be able to monitor what is going on around them.
