It's pushing it, but they will see that far. However, at that distance, you have to be lined up PERFECTLY for them to see anything, where as closer in you can be off by a significant number of degrees.

Also, they won't pick up anything other than retroreflective tape (or a perfectly aligned and oriented mirror) at more than ~1'.
