I may think it is silly not to, and the arguments against are specious, but it is your choice, just as it was the luddites to smash their machines.
This is one of our local trams. You'll notice the colour.
According to Wikipedia these trams are 3.7m high, 2.6m wide, and 38m long. They are, as you can see, bright yellow and have 3 headlights, as well as indicators and rear lights, and being rail vehicles they tend to follow the same route every time they pass.
And yet frequently car drivers completely fail to see them, and pull out in front of them, or drive into them.
If drivers in Stuttgart are managing not to see this, I reckon they'll have no problem missing a hi-vis vest.
And Luddites did a lot more than smash machines...
