Conspicuity tape is a type of retroreflective material that is used to increase the visibility of vehicles, especially in low light conditions. The use of this tape on the rear bumper of transit buses is highly recommended, as it provides numerous benefits to both the bus drivers and other drivers on the road. Let’s review the advantages of using conspicuity tape on the rear bumper of transit buses!

Improved Safety
The primary benefit of using conspicuity tape on the rear bumper of transit buses is increased safety. In low light conditions, such as at dawn, dusk, or during inclement weather, other drivers on the road may have difficulty seeing the bus. The reflective nature of the tape ensures that the bus is more noticeable, reducing the risk of accidents.

Increased Visibility
Conspicuity tape is highly reflective and provides a bright, eye-catching glow in low light conditions, making it easier for other drivers to spot the bus. This is particularly important for transit buses, which often operate in congested urban areas and need to be easily visible to other drivers.

Easy to Install
Conspicuity tape is easy to install and can be applied directly to the rear bumper of the bus. It only requires a quick prep of bumper, some masking tape, and a graphics application squeegee.

Durable and Long-lasting
Conspicuity tape is made from high-quality, durable materials that are resistant to weathering, fading, and abrasion. Our special bumper kit also comes with STG Vigor, an aggressive adhesive for the use on any type of bumper. This means that the tape will remain visible for many years, even in those harsh transit conditions.

Cost-Effective Solution
Compared to other safety features, such as installing additional lighting on the bus, using conspicuity tape is a cost-effective solution. The tape is relatively inexpensive and can be applied quickly, making it an ideal choice for transit agencies on a budget and ones looking to outfit a fleet quickly.

Using conspicuity tape on the rear bumper of transit buses is an effective way to increase safety and visibility on the road. This cost-effective solution is easy to install, durable, and provides long-lasting benefits to both bus drivers and other drivers on the road. If you are a transit agency looking for ways to improve the safety of your fleet, consider adding STG Conspicuity Tape to the rear bumpers of your buses.
