An emergency stop system includes a hazard switch that is a momentary switch, an automatic stop controller that performs automatic stop control for causing a vehicle to automatically stop when a predetermined condition is met, and a hazard light controller that controls hazard lights. While automatic stop control is not being performed, the hazard light controller switches the hazard lights between a flashing state and a turned-off state each time a user presses the hazard switch. The hazard light controller brings the hazard lights into the flashing state upon start of the automatic stop control, and turns off the hazard lights (i.e., transitions the hazard lights to the turned-off state) upon depression of the hazard switch while the hazard lights are flashing during execution of the automatic stop control.

A system for implementing strobing of existing vehicle hazard lights including an interface to a vehicle wiring harness configured to receive input to an existing vehicle flasher module, and a strobing circuit that responds to an activation signal from the vehicle wiring harness that is indicative of a hazard flasher deployment event by producing an electrical output through the interface to the vehicle wiring harness that causes a strobing of existing vehicle hazard lamps.

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for configuring automotive lamp illumination control are provided. One example method includes, at a computing device, generating a graphical user interface for configuring at an automotive lamp illumination pattern. The graphical user interface includes user input elements and is displayed by way of a display device. An input command is received by way of at least one of the plurality of user input elements. The input command corresponds to the at least one of the user input elements. A message is transmitted to an automotive lamp control device by way of a communication path including a first communication port of the computing device and a second communication port of the automotive lamp control device, based on the received input command. The message is received at the automotive lamp control device, and an action is performed in response to receiving the message.

A vehicle hazard alert assembly for increasing safety during an automobile accident includes a plug is electrically coupled to an OBD-II port in a vehicle. A motion sensing unit is electrically coupled to the plug and the motions sensing unit includes an accelerometer. Thus, the motion sensing unit can sense acceleration and deceleration of the vehicle. Moreover, the motion sensing unit communicates an alert signal to the plug when the motion sensing unit senses motion of the vehicle that is consistent with collision avoidance maneuvers. The plug communicates the alert signal to the computer module thereby facilitating the computer module to turn on the hazard lights of the vehicle. In this way the motion sensing unit alerts oncoming motorists of a potential collision hazard.

A vehicular exterior rearview mirror assembly includes a mirror reflective element sub-assembly having a mirror reflective element, a mirror reflector, a mirror back plate, a heater pad and a blind spot indicator module. The heater pad is disposed between the mirror reflective element and the mirror back plate and has a light transmitting portion that is aligned with an aperture of the mirror back plate. The blind spot indicator module includes a body portion and a connector portion extending from the body portion. Light emitted by at least one light emitting diode of the blind spot indicator module passes through the light transmitting portion of the heater pad and through a light-transmitting portion of the mirror reflector and exits the mirror reflective element to provide a visual icon visible to a driver of the vehicle who is driving the vehicle and who is viewing said mirror reflective element.

A push cart according to one aspect of the present disclosure includes a wheel, a body frame, and a lighting device. The body frame includes a handle portion and rotatably supports the wheel. The body frame is configured to be able to mount a loading platform on the body frame. The handle portion is gripped by a user of the push cart. The lighting device emits light.

Device for controlling at least a first light source of a motor vehicle, the motor vehicle at least comprising the first light source being configured to provide a first light function and a second light source configured to provide a second light function, the device comprising: electrical means configured to detect activation of the second light source, and to deactivate the first light source after detection of activation of the second light source. Also, method for controlling at least a first light source of a motor vehicle, the motor vehicle comprising the first light source being configured to provide a first light function and a second light source configured to provide a second light function, the method comprising: electrically detecting activation of the second light source; and electrically deactivating the first light source after detecting activation of the second light source.

A vehicle lamp includes: a first light source; a second light source; a first input terminal that receives a first turn-on instruction signal of the first light source; a second input terminal that receives a pulsed second turn-on instruction signal of the second light source; and a turn-on circuit that drives the first light source and the second light source based on the first turn-on instruction signal and the second turn-on instruction signal. The turn-on circuit includes: a drive circuit that becomes active based on the first turn-on instruction signal and the second turn-on instruction signal, and outputs a constant drive current from an output terminal; and a distribution circuit that forms a current path such that the drive current flows to the second light source, and forms a current path such that the drive current flows to the first light source.
