Is It Necessary to Install Ambient Lighting?

[StJanelle]

Whether to install ambient lighting in the car mainly depends on personal preference. Some people prefer the atmosphere and are willing to take the risks, so installing ambient lighting is acceptable, but it may pose driving hazards. Introduction to Ambient Lighting: Car ambient lighting is a decorative lighting system, usually in colors like red, blue, or green, primarily designed to make the cabin more visually appealing at night, enhance the atmosphere, and create an interior ambiance. It's important to note that the color of the lighting may affect normal safe driving. When driving at night, if the cabin is lit, the front windshield acts like a mirror, reflecting the interior light into the driver's eyes, making it difficult to see darker road conditions ahead and increasing the risk of accidents. Side Effects of Ambient Lighting: It can compromise driving safety—flashing or overly bright ambient lighting may obstruct the driver's view of the outside and distract attention, jeopardizing nighttime driving safety. It may also reduce car battery life, as ambient lighting consumes additional power, affecting the battery's longevity.
