that orange paint might actually improve its weather resistance
Have you ever seen one in person? I have, and at the wrong angle, that shiny stainless steel reflects the sun just about as much as a mirror does, blinding other drivers and pedestrians at certain angles.
So if anything, a paint job of any sort, vandalism or not, only serves to make them ever so slightly safer...
I've seen a single one. It was in the oncoming lane and honestly I and didn't even process it as a vehicle at first. My first thought was that it was the bumper of a semi.
Oof, damn. I can totally understand what you mean there. I never thought of it quite like that, the one I saw wasn't while driving, they just happened to park behind us at our city park and I got a couple photos.
So I had a chance to walk around it for a good camera angle. But yes indeed, bad angles are extremely blinding.
But now you got me sorta scared to see one while actually driving..
Quite a few in my area. Just the other day I saw one with a matte wrap and gold accents on the sharp edges.
How classy huh? /s
Also they are easier to spot.
