Lets cars use pulsating brake lights to help prevent rear-end crashes.
This bill would let car manufacturers install pulsating high-mounted brake lights on vehicles. These lights would flash quickly when you hit the brakes, then stay solid, potentially helping drivers behind you notice when you're stopping. The government would also create new rules for how these lights must work to ensure safety.
Today, federal rules don't clearly allow pulsating high-mounted brake lights on cars, so they are not typically installed. If this bill becomes law, car manufacturers would immediately be allowed to use these systems. The Secretary of Transportation would then have 180 days to create specific new rules for how these pulsating lights must work.
