Patrol Belt

Question

Howard asked: Recently I asked about placing cards on trucks and cars parked in the bike lane. This actually works and I have seen trucks move after finding the cards. I wonder if wearing a patrol belt while riding even though it has no official meaning can increase awareness of drivers that the bike lane must be kept safe.
If wearing a patrol belt is not against the law, what about having printed on the belt “bicycle patrol”. Would that be legal?

Answer

I know of no law that would prohibit wearing of such belts as long as they as clearly not identified as a law enforcement item.
