Let's not jump to conclusions. Have you seen these folks break the law? The cyclists who wear hi-vis are much less likely break the law than cyclists who don't in my experience. In fact, I can't recall a single instance in my decade of riding where I saw a hi-vis cyclist break the law. The folks you saw probably were trying to improve their visibility.
Though, as a motorcyclist on HN told me, a driver seeing you and being angry at you is often better than them not seeing you.
