The safety cone was invented in the early twentieth century and serves multiple indoor and outdoor purposes. The cone is inexpensive, requires few resources for maintenance or placement and provides flexibility for users. The Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices put out by the US Federal Highway Administration mandates safety cones reflective collars so each cone is visible in low-light or nighttime situations.

The History

Safety cones were invented in 1914. They were invented by American Charles Rudabaker and David Morgan of Oxford in the United Kingdom, refined the design in 1961. Rudabaker’s design was originally made of concrete but a cone today is made of highly durable plastic. The cone may be used in any weather condition and is easily seen by drivers at high speeds, thanks to bright colors and reflective collars.

Road Construction

The traffic cones often redirect vehicles around road construction. While road construction workers are busy, they are not able to watch for oncoming traffic. Cones establish a protective barrier between traffic and workers and its easy placement and setup allows for the temporary rerouting of cars onto shoulders or into other lanes while construction is ongoing.

Safety Personnel

Auto accidents and breakdowns are often marked by a traffic cone. EMTs, firefighters and police officers often use the cone to make sure that traffic does not affect legal evidence. These cones insure traffic stays away from accident sites. A cone also steers traffic away from vehicles experiencing breakdowns like flat tires as a backup to a car’s emergency lights.

Hazardous Conditions

The traffic cone often marks hazardous road conditions. The traffic cone is often set up near potholes or other areas of natural or human-initiated road damage. At times, the traffic cone is set up at accident-prone sites to reduce the likelihood of collisions and injuries.

Indoor Uses

People have found many other uses for the safety cone. Some organizations mark off their delivery zones or parking lots with a cone while others mark off reserved parking or VIP areas during an important event. Indoors, people use cones to warn of slippery conditions or of places that are unsafe for pedestrians.

Visibility

For visibility in the dark, cones are fit with reflective collars. Collars are white strips made from white reflective plastic, which may be either slipped over cones, or held in place by tape or adhesive. Regulations require two collars on one 28-inch cone and one collar on a cone measuring eighteen inches or fewer. On 28-inch models, the top band must be a minimum of six inches wide and must be placed between three and four inches from the top. The second collar should be a four-inch band placed two inches below the 6-inch band.
