What you need to know about NFPA 1901
The highlights of the new NFPA 1901 regulations are summarized on the FireChief.com website. The section specifically discussing rear reflective markings for traffic visibility are stated as:
Fifty percent of the rear-facing vertical surface of all vehicles must now be covered with reflective red and yellow stripes in a chevron pattern sloping downward from the center of the vehicle at a 45-degree angle. The stripes must be 6 in wide, instead of the minimum combined width of 4 in specified on the sides and front. Although there is some latitude on the exact shade of yellow to be used, other colors may not be substituted.
