Correct answer

  • ASí.Yes.
Explanation

A high-visibility reflective vest must meet the requirements for personal protective equipment, that is, it must be approved, whether it is yellow, orange or red. It is part of the compulsory equipment, and you must put it on when you get out of the vehicle and go onto the carriageway or the hard shoulder of a road outside built-up areas.
