Comment on Front Brake Lights Could Drastically Diminish Road Accident Rates
Jimmycakes@lemmy.world 1 week agoI see a lot of those on trucks here in the south. Good for when you are towing shit so people can see around all your junk in the trailer.

Does your state not require good lights on the trailers? I just built a new trailer last year, I was required to have full working brake and turn signals along with running lights, but I went the extra step and included more brake/turn lights on the front and rear of the fenders, along with reverse lights plus four marker lights along each side. Trailers are hard enough to see, I didn’t want to make it harder for anyone by just sticking with the bare minimum.

I think only brake lights are required

Wow that’s got to be almost worthless. As you say, it just takes some idiot with a load obscuring the vehicle lights and suddenly nobody behind them knows what’s going on. What’s next, are we going to make tail lights optional?
