Show answer
Correct answer
- CQue pierde sus propiedades reflectantes.It loses its reflective properties.
Explanation
Long exposure to the sun damages the vest's material, and it loses its reflective and high-visibility properties. That is why it is best to keep it in the glovebox or under the seat, within the driver's reach but protected from light.
