Prostitutes In Spain Are Now Required To Wear Reflective Vests

Safety first ladies! And yes, we’re definitely talking about construction worker-like reflective vests. Find out more about this odd new law after the jump.

Catalonian prostitutes are now going to have to pack a little something extra when they hit the streets looking for customers. Officials are mandating that prostitutes trolling on a rural highway outside Els Alamus wear reflective vests because of the danger they pose to drivers. Those unwilling to cooperate will be fined 40 euros. A police spokesperson said:

“In the past couple of months the prostitutes have been fined for two reasons: for not wearing the reflective jacket and for creating danger on the public highway.”

Some sex workers, however, are claiming that this is just another way for the government to crack down on their trade. Well, I mean, it can’t be all that bad, right? I mean, if you put a little thought in it, maybe you can work the vest into your pick-up routine. Or better yet, you might be able to find sexier ways to fluoresce than with a big, bulky vest. We look forward to seeing what you come up with ladies.
