    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 . .

    ...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.

    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?

    ay badtrip yang blue lights na yan. a month ago. almost rear ended a corolla ae101 with blue signal lights. i was on the left side overtaking (highway) while he was slowing down. didnt notice he was signaling to go left because of that blue light and the fact that its mid day and the sun shining brightly.

    full brakes + skid + full beep horns + flashing headlights + panic + curses and more curses. good thing he stopped on time and there was no incoming traffic. whew.



    thats should really be enforced by traffic enforcers and the police. its like 2 deaf people trying to talk to each other. we drivers have to communicate clearly on the streets. hence, signal lights and such. giving other drivers mixed signals or faint signals(like that blue signal lights, curse on him) we will get in deep trouble.

    I hear you, but as with most problems there it's mostly about enforcement. Without it nothing will happen. Glad nothing happened, it could have been worse.

    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.
