There is a first turn signal light housing hingedly connected to the battery assembly and horn assembly housing. Another embodiment has telescoping signal light housings. There is a removable, single directional lens on the first turn signal light housing and two reflector lens on the first turn signal light housing. A second turn signal light housing is hingedly connected to the battery assembly and horn assembly housing. There is a removable, single directional lens on the second turn signal light housing and two second reflector lens on the second turn signal light housing. A first turn signal light and a second turn signal light is in their respective turn signal light housings. A turn signal light and horn activation switching circuit, in the switch assembly housing, is wired to selectively control intermittent illumination of the first turn signal light and the second turn signal light and to selectively activate the horn assembly to produce sound. A power source is in the battery assembly and horn assembly housing. A horn assembly is housed in the battery assembly and horn assembly housing. The turn signal light and horn activation switching circuit is electrically connected to the first turn signal light, to the second turn signal light, to two LED's, to the horn assembly and to the power source. The horn sounds when the turn signal lights are illuminated.
