The aim of the present invention is to have the brake-lights of automotive vehicles in general activated as soon as the driver takes his foot off the accelerator. This set-up gives the driver of the vehicle following, a lead-time to react, not currently available. To implement this new configuration, the invention also introduces the use of "intelligent" or "live" command-pedals, that react instantly to the presence or absence of pressure exerted theron by the drivers foot. Furthermore, the new configuration introduces two additional road-safety features: parallel electric circuits to activate the vehicle's brake-lights, and automatically activated brake-lights for vehicles that are temporarily stopped in traffic. |
