Action of the Rear reflector on a Bicycle. The rear reflector of a bicycle is made up of red coloured glass or plastic. The surface is rough so that when light is shone on it, the beam is scattered in all directions (diffuse reflection). Since the colour is read, the red portion of the light spectrum is scattered more.
