Third brake light – for a fast stop
When we need to stop our car quickly we just need the information on when to start stopping the car. The car has powerful brakes and if we slam down on them for an emergency stop they will stop the car very quickly. Which means that to stop the car in time the key thing is the information that the car needs to be stopped urgently reaching us. And when mishaps take place the reason is rarely that the brakes did not deliver a good performance, it is that the information to stop the car reached too late.
At 60 miles an hour a car travels more than 2.5 meters in one tenth of a second. Which should make you realize the importance of every moment saved in delivering the information that the car needs to be stopped. And this is where the third brake light makes an impact. When the bright red light shines from a higher level it catches the eye of the driver of the car following yours faster. This gives the person a little more time to react which could be crucial. Even if it saves one hundredth of a second it may help the car stop a few inches earlier which could be the difference between an impact and a narrow escape. And when things are not so close the third brake light will still help by lowering stress levels all round. It will inform the driver behind you well in time and neither of you will be stressed by the fear of a possible impact.
The third brake light is for very good reasons mandatory in many parts of the world. If it is not mandatory it still makes a lot of sense to get one installed. It may be alright to take a small risk when you yourself are in charge, but when you depend on someone other person’s reflexes it is best to play s safe as one can. You can make your car even safer by opting for the latest Euro tail lights which light up brightly at night and look classy as well. You can see the latest automotive lights at www.ilovebodykits.com.
