What Does the Flashing Light on a Vehicle Mean?
1 Answers
The double flash is the vehicle's hazard warning light. Traffic regulations state that in the event of a breakdown or accident on the highway, the hazard warning flashers should be activated, and at night, the width indicator lights and tail lights should also be turned on. When the light switch is turned to the first position, the small lights that illuminate both front and rear are the width indicator lights. These indicate the width of the vehicle to alert oncoming and following vehicles. The double flash lights are emergency lights. Once activated, the small lights on both sides will flash simultaneously to alert passing vehicles to pay attention to safety. While driving on the road, if you see a slowly moving S-shaped vehicle with double flash lights, it means the vehicle requires assistance or help. Therefore, if you frequently drive on the road, you should pay more attention to such situations. In other words, the double flashing lights serve as a four-way alarm signal. It indicates that the vehicle has a minor driving issue, cannot accelerate or speed up normally, and alerts the following vehicles to drive safely and yield appropriately. It also reminds traffic police on the road not to treat it as a traffic violation, as the vehicle is experiencing a minor malfunction and is driving at a reduced speed.
