Red-Go, Yellow-Caution/turn, Bright Red-Stop?
I’ve never understood why running lights and stop lights on vehicles are the same color as the stop/brake lights?
You would think it would be the same as traffic lights.
Red=Stop
Yellow=Caution/turn
Green=Go/running lights
Now the high mounted brake light in the middle of vehicles has somewhat helped in this confusion in that it only comes on when braking. But it will still be the same color and intensity as the regular brake lights so if you look away for a second and look back you may not notice the difference in intensity from running light to brake light.
I’ve emailed car manufacturing companies and government officials awhile ago about this but nothing seems to have happened in one year?
Just another outside the box suggestion.
