Abstract:
1. A vehicle mounted acceleration/de-acceleration warning light system comprising: a. a base with attachment structure to secure either to the front or rear of a vehicle, b. a reflective mirror with reflective surfaces attached to the base, c. a light source attached to the base and positioned to direct light onto the reflective mirror surfaces for reflection and direction, d. a lens cover with facets aligned with the reflective mirror surfaces to direct the light from the light source into a warning light pattern onto the ground or at a desired point near or onto the vehicle, said lens cover projecting sufficiently from the base to be visible from the sides and front of the vehicle, e. a power source associated with the light source, and f. a reversible control circuit associated with the brakes and the wheels to selectively activate the light source when the vehicle is de-accelerating or accelerating by providing a braking signal in a vehicle braking mode, and a traveling signal in a vehicle traveling mode, wherein the control circuit signal selected is dependant upon whether the warning light system is mounted on the front or rear of the vehicle.
