ABSTRACT:
A light of standard color is illuminated when the braking means of a vehicle is applied. The light is extinguished when the braking means are released. The light is located on the forepart of a vehicle preferably in the mid-line, facing in a forward direction the light beam emanating therefrom projecting towards the front of a vehicle, and is so placed at or above dash-board level so as to be clearly visible to other vehicles or persons facing said vehicle or through the rear view mirror if such an equipped vehicle is approaching from behind. The forward facing brake light is one in number to avoid confusion with standard double or multiple rear brake lights and is visible both day and night when brakes are activated.
