Let others know to keep your distance with these tail lift flags.
These warning flags incorporate a reflective strip that ensures clear visibility in all lighting conditions.
If the lift protrudes beyond the normal contours of the vehicle, a warning system is required. One way this can be done is with reflective tail lift flags. The requirements for tail lift flags vary by country. In the Netherlands and France a reflective strip must be present on the flag.
In Germany, tail lift flags must be red/white and fully reflective.
In Switzerland the mandatory tail lift flag is yellow with black stripes.
In Great Britain the tail lift flag is yellow/red with a reflective strip.
