With the increased traffic on our roads the possibility of someone following you may not see your brake lights until it is too late. We have all see the accidents on the road where a car has run into the back of the car in front. With flashing brake lights it can be avoided. This low cost easy to fit unit is a step forward in making long journeys safer.
Blinking Smart Stop lets you maximize your Brake Light Effectiveness with The Smart Stop Module. This compact State-of-the-Art solid-state electronic module converts your ordinary centre brake light into an attention getting visual alerting device, creating a conspicuous and visual alert when you are braking. With The Smart Stop installed, when you apply your brakes, it causes your centre high mounted brake light to automatically emit a visual alerting signal of 6 light flashes, followed by steady on red light condition.
Studies carried out by Daimler Benz prove that people’s reaction time is quicker with flashing brake lights than without. The studies found that at a speed of 50 Mph (80 Kph) the increased reaction time reduces the stopping distance by approximately 14.5 feet, and at 65 Mph (105 Kph) by around 20 feet. (6.2 Meters}
