Patent ID: 7782185

Claim:
A progressive brake light apparatus for a motor vehicle, the apparatus consisting of: a hydraulic pressure sensor for fit between a brake cylinder and a rear brake line of the vehicle, the sensor further capable of electrical relay from an electrical system of the vehicle, the sensor further comprising: a low pressure sensor; a medium pressure sensor; a high pressure sensor; a brake light assembly, the assembly comprising: a housing for fit to the rear of the vehicle; a trio of separate light sources connected to each of the low pressure sensor, the medium pressure sensor, and the high pressure sensor, respectively, of the hydraulic pressure sensor, whereby initial brake line pressure lights the amber light source, medium brake line pressure lights the red light source, and high brake pressure lights the purple light source; wherein the trio of separate light sources are disposed vertically; wherein each of the trio of separate light sources further comprises a different color; wherein each of the trio of separate light sources further comprises a different size; wherein the different sizes of light sources further comprise: a smallest size light source connected to the low pressure sensor; a medium size light source connected to the medium pressure sensor; a largest size light source connected to the high pressure sensor; wherein the largest size light source is uppermost in the vertical disposition of the light sources; wherein the medium size light source is disposed below the largest size light source; wherein the smallest size light source is disposed below the medium size light source.
