ABSTRACT:
A vehicle brake light signal for alerting pedestrians or other vehicle drivers positioned in front of a vehicle to a deceleration of the associated vehicle. The device includes signal assembly which may be secured to a front area of the vehicle. The signal assembly is electrically coupled to both the brake lights of the vehicle and a variable rate flasher. Upon a depression of the brake pedal of the vehicle, the signal assembly will illuminate or flash to warn others of the vehicle's deceleration. Alternate embodiments of the present invention further include a variable aperture assembly controlled by a deceleration sensor for varying the intensity of the signal assembly as a function of the vehicle's deceleration, and a lens cover positionable over the signal assembly operable to produce three distinct light zones.
