ABSTRACT:
A vehicle safety device for monitoring directional signal lamps comprises a plurality of directional signal monitor lights positioned on the dashboard of a motor vehicle, a monitor light being associated with each set of directional signal lamps with each monitor light being connected to a plurality of monitor diodes. Each monitor diode is connected downstream of a current detection apparatus connected to detect current flow through a predetermined signal lamp and in response to such current flow to close a switch, permitting current to flow from a directional signal power switch through the monitor diode to a monitor light, thereby indicating that the predetermined signal lamp is operational. An alarm apparatus is also provided to alert the operator when a signal lamp becomes inoperative.
