ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to an initial brake warning light assembly which can be attached to existing or new car manufactured vehicles and to present a visual alarm signal on contact with a brake pad member on a brake actuator assembly to indicate that the vehicle operator has touched the brake pedal and, therefore, is anticipating a full braking operation. The initial brake warning light assembly includes (1) a brake light actuator assembly connected to a brake pad member on the brake actuator assembly (2) a visual warning assembly connected to the brake light actuator assembly to present an initial brake warning signal; and (3) an electrical control circuit interconnecting the visual warning assembly to the brake light actuator assembly. The brake light actuator assembly includes an actuator switch member connected to the brake pad member and which will be initially contacted and depressed by an operator's foot member to energize the visual warning assembly. The visual warning assembly includes an initial brake warning light connected to the actuator switch member so as to energize an amber warning light on closing of the actuator switch member and, further, having a brake warning light which is operable on depression of the brake pad member to indicate the normal red signal light indicating that the vehicle brakes are being applied.
