I suppose ideally the reflector should be more effective than this tape. But there are thousands of nyncompoops out there with no taillight assemblies completely, forget fused bulbs. Infact spotting an old Amby or Fiat with working brakelights is so rare today, that the last time moralfibre and me saw one we had to document it!
Of course, this was expected from the elderly gent driving it...hes been maintaining it in showroom condition for around 40 years now. The present generation never learned these things. Read Srinivas Krishnans great article on the same subject in this months BSMotoring.
