Abstract
A safety vest includes a vest body including front, back and sides, a light source having a battery pack and at least one LED, the light source being removably mounted to the vest body, at least one light tube extending from one side of the light source, for receiving light projected from the LED and conveying the light along the length of the light tube, the light tube extending along the front, back or sides of the vest, and vest fabric mounted over the light tube to hold it in position against the vest body, the vest fabric being at least translucent and therefore permitting light from the light tube to shine therethrough.
