Abstract:
1. A traffic notification system comprising: a signal generator for emitting a first emergency signal; a series of signal receivers for receiving the first emergency signal; a series of traffic alert devices, each alert device associated with at least one of the signal receivers such that when a receiver of the series of signal receivers detects the first emergency signal, a corresponding traffic alert device is activated; and a series of signal relays, each signal relay associated with one of the signal receivers such that when the receiver of the series of signal receivers detects the first emergency signal, a corresponding signal relay sends a corresponding second emergency signal in the direction of another one of the signal receivers, thereby propagating the first emergency signal; and wherein the receiver reduces the intensity of the first emergency signal prior to the signal relay sending the corresponding second emergency signal, such that each successive signal relay propagates the second emergency signal having a successively reduced intensity.
