ABSTRACT:
A road hazard warning device for use with an electrical system of a vehicle includes a generally triangular, planar member having front and rear sides. A weight is attached to one side of the planar member to cause it to hang generally perpendicular when attached to the vehicle. A plurality of lights are attached adjacent the outer peripheral edges of the planar member. A circuit is connected to the lights for flashing the lights. Electrical power is supplied to the lights from the electrical system of the vehicle by a first and second wire, each having at a first end an electrical connection to each light and at a second end having an allegator clip with tensioned opposed jaw members biased to remain in a closed position. Each jaw member has a plurality of depending teeth adapted for penetrating the insulation surrounding a wire in the vehicle electrical system and creating an electrical connection therewith for providing electrical power to the lights.
