Edit: to clarify: the message in the ad is actually ironic/satirical, mocking the advice for cyclists to wear high-viz at night.

It uses the same logic but inverts the parts and responsabilities, by suggesting to motorists (not cyclists) to apply bright paint on their cars.

So this ad is not pro or against high-viz, it’s against victim blaming

    In California (Well, at least in LA County) it’s required by law for cyclists riding at night to have a bell, headlight, and reflectors. Different parts of the world are different though.
