Bagong uso - Strobe LED brake lights

[Mguy]

As new car models are rolling out with LED brake lights, I saw a couple of cars (an Altis and a Yaris) that when they step on the brakes, their brake light will light up like a strobe light.

Although it did catch my attention, looking at it at prolonged periods is very irritating.

Mahirap na pag gabi, traffic at lahat ng nasa harap mo naka strobe, hehehe. Baka pag uwi mo pulang pula mata mo. . . Mga galit sa pera lang yan bro . .

[afrasay]

...feeling mo si michael jordan ka while in the air for a slam photog flashing away ;)
ewan ko ba bakit dito sa atin ang daming gimik sa car. I wouldn't mind those lighted windshield washers, skirts, wings spoilers but when it comes to lighting, headlights, park and signal, it should remain stock (no blue color please) or an upgrade but never modified.

gusto ko yang LED na tail at brake lights tulad nung nasa mga bagong kotse.

pero yung gawin mong strobe lights yun, ndi ko type. pag trapik, mapapagod nga ang mata nung nasa likuran mo.

[KBR]

WOW PARE!! only in the Philippines talaga!! man... pag dito sa US yan, tagal ng pinul-over ng pulis yan.

and man, thats gotta be irritating as hell!! road hazard yan mga 'tol!!



aite, peace.

hahaha... i thought what i saw was one of a kind...




it's the christmas season. ginagaya lang nila yung mga kumukutikutitap na parol

Its just between Safety and common sense.

Also, don't like that blue signal lights. Did not even match the color of tail light cluster. A bright brake light together with a dark signal light.

Wala pa akong na encounter na flashing brake lights.

Ha! Strobes?! That's downright irritating, and painful to the eyes.

The LED-type of lights is ok. They're supposed to be for safety reasons as they light up faster and are brighter.

Aren't they coming out with an innovation on brake lights? Wherein depending on how long/hard you step on the brakes, the lights can blink or remain steady?

yung mga underbone motorcycle andaming nakaganyan.

[cutedoc]

i think stobe lights would only create annoying flash and irritate the driver at the back, stick with the norm less hassle less accident=)

though i think stibe lights would be a good addition to a "bling bling" look

[meledson]

Sa mga bikes di ba may pattern naman, hindi patay-sindi na parang hazzard lights. At saka ang mga bikes, di matagal na nakatutok ka sa likod nila pag traffic. Di tulad ng mga cars.

[karlbo]

strobes? as in blinking yun? haha meron na pala ngayon niyan...

mga walang magawa at puro RICEY features lang ang alam na upgrade...

[froshie1]

Panibagong pautot na naman ito ng mga Pilipino. Tiyak marami ang sasakit ang ulo nito, oh well disaster magnet eto at wag na sanang bilhin.

Kaya ginawang steady red ang stop lights eh dahil eto ang pinaka tawag pansin sa lahat ng tao at ang red ang may pinaka mahabang light beam sa lahat ng colors. Paano kung ginawa mong patay sindi damn it saket sa mata nun sigurado.

[meledson]

OT.

Di ba sumasakit ang mata nyo sa mga naka Euro na "fog tail light"? Lakas ng pagka pula, medyo masakit sa mata ko lalo na pag matagal ng sinusundan.

[falken]

Saw a car with this kind of tail light installed, masakit nga sa mata.

[monlab]

I think the new European cars like the C-class have something like this feature but the blinking happens only during panic braking.

Meron ngang ganito bossing.

BMW and Mercedes-Benz are working on an "extra brightness mode" for their braking LEDs. It's supposed to work when you panic-brake, thus giving following cars more awareness that you've buried your foot in the brake pedal.

The present S-Class has these I think.

I think the fog tail light is meant for very dark provincial roads and not for every night city driving. It is also meant for snow and hard rains. Yung tipong 1 meter visibility na lang or mga 5 feet visibility (which I experienced coming down from Tagaytay with a tropical storm). LED break lights also are meant for visibility but rear fog light is not meant for common use. (unless pala if you want to irritate the driver behind you).
