I think this is would be a better idea than the leg bands because you'd never forget these. There is also reflective tape with adhesive backing and iron on type (the stuff I've seen needs to reach 250 deg F to set which makes me wonder if it's just hot glue).
Though with leg bands, you get all around visibility rather than just a narrow angle so that would be a trade off.
