ABSTRACT:
A system for improving vehicle safety and reducing driver stress by signalling drivers of oncoming vehicles and vehicles behind a vehicle to dim or turn on their vehicle's headlights. The signalling system comprises a front signalling light, a rear signalling light and a control system. The signalling lights are focused and aimed in the direction of drivers of oncoming vehicles and vehicles behind a vehicle to gain their attention without disturbing other drivers. A series of flashing light beams are transmitted in a controlled manner to distinguish the lights from other vehicle and traffic lights. The signalling system is activated by a switch which is located adjacent to a driver's hand to reduce the time for activating the system. The system has two operating states, one state where the signalling lights are timed to flash "on" and "off" for a predetermined amount of time and another state where the signalling lights flash continuously "on" and "off". Several embodiments are disclosed to illustrate the broad scope of the invention.
