I think that reflective vests/stripes work best at night, but as far as bright colors go, I've had people looking straight at me and proceed to change into my lane.

I don't have any issue with visibility. My gear is red and people can see me a mile away. Yeah, I may look like a power ranger with my solid red helmet, but it's easy to see in the daylight. Fire engine red FTMFW.

I can't say I totally agree that brighter is better... as many have stated... people will still run you off the road... but... every little bit helps in my mind... so I'll dress in bright colors to a point... but no way in hell am I gonna rely on it to save my ass...
