International Classification:

B60Q 9/00
B60Q 1/48
B60Q 1/34
B60Q 1/52

Abstract:

A microcontroller is in operative control of the left and right turn signal lamps, a park selector indicator input is communicatively coupled to the microcontroller to indicate when a vehicle is placed in park. An ignition switch position indicator is communicatively coupled to the microcontroller to indicate when the vehicle ignition switch is on or off. A hazard lamp switch activates the microcontroller to flash the left and right turn signal lamps together a standard flash rate, and a high conspicuity switch that activates the microcontroller to flash the left and right turn signal lamps together at a high conspicuity rate when the hazard lamp switch is activated, and the vehicle is in park or the ignition is off.

International Classification:

B60Q 1/46
B60W 10/30

Abstract:

A system has a microcontroller with operative control of a set of vehicle lights including an ability to flash all of the set of vehicle signal lights simultaneously as hazard flashers and an ability to strobe all of the set of vehicle signal lights as high conspicuity emergency lighting. Upon receipt of an indication from a vehicle data bus that the vehicle is slowing as a result of a stopping event, the microcontroller determines a speed of the vehicle and strobes the set of vehicle signal lights as high conspicuity emergency lighting if the speed of the vehicle is below a predetermined threshold
