Isuzu Fvr Exterior Lighting Brake Lights Safety Report | Oct 18, 2006



Reported on Oct 18, 2006


SEVERAL MANUFACTURERS ARE DIMMING THE BRAKE LIGHTS (IE RED RUNNING LIGHTS) BY FLASHING THE LED COMPONENTS MANY TIMES A SECOND. IT IS DISCONCERTING TO VIEW THE DASHES OF LIGHT THAT ARE PERCEIVED BY THE RETINA IF THE HEAD IS MOVED RAPIDLY. I EVEN UNDERSTAND THE LAW REQUIRES CONSTANT ILLUMINATION OF BULBS. WITH MORE AND MORE LIGHTS BEING MODULATED WITH ON OFF CYCLES TO REDUCE INTENSITY, THE EYE IS DRAWN TO THESE FLASHES PREVENTING ADEQUATE ATTENTION TO OTHER DETAIL OF TRAFFIC AND OBSTRUCTIONS AT NIGHT. *NM
