Reflectors always mean you are facing traffic the wrong way and could have a head-on collision?
Reflectors indicate the direction of traffic flow and are typically placed on the right side for drivers to see when they are traveling in the correct direction. Seeing a reflector on your left side could indicate that you are driving the wrong way, but it doesn't necessarily guarantee a head-on collision; it's important to adjust your position to ensure you are driving in the correct direction.
How do road reflectors work?
Because the light from the head lights reflect off of them giving the driver a glowing object and a clear view of what's around them. Usually glass beads or reflectors containing prisms.

The refactive index causes total internal reflection, it then exits back the way it came.
