Flashing brake lights.

<< < (2/3) > >>

Jdbiker:
Thanks all for replies, think I'll go down the solid path, not keen on upsetting  :cop.

Bikebear:
I've got an additional pair of bright red leds mounted under my topbox that flash 5 times then come on solid. I've had police behind me many times when I've braked and they haven't batted an eyelid. In fact many people have commented that they really grabbed their attention when I was braking. The original brakelight works as per normal.
Dunno whether they are legal or not but they've been there for years now and no-one has ever had a problem with them.

No one in their right mind would be game to argue that they're a distraction. I think they're a good thing.
I tried putting one of my own tailBlazers on recently but couldn't isolate/locate the brake wires - I'll have another go soon

JD, if it helps you not being rear ended, I'd go for it - you can always argue that they're safety related

Sicman:
This is how I did mine JDBiker - They are brilliant at getting drivers to notice you brake. I reckon they have saved many a rear ender from inattentive drivers. They are legal in NSW.
