Systems and methods for replicating vehicular illumination are disclosed. According to an aspect, a system includes a detector configured to sense light emitted by a host light of a host vehicle for detecting a lighting state of the host light. The system also includes a communications system configured to communicate the detected lighting state between the host light and the remote light. Further, the system includes a remote light being located on one of the host vehicle and an operator of the host vehicle and configured to replicate the lighting state of the host light.

The present invention provides a straddle type vehicle, comprising: a taillight disposed in a rear portion of a vehicle and configured to emit light to rearward of the vehicle and a detection unit configured to emit radio waves and detect surrounding conditions behind the vehicle, wherein the taillight includes a light source and a housing for accommodating the light source, the detection unit is provided inside the housing, the housing has a transmitting portion that includes a first region for transmitting light emitted from the light source and a second region for transmitting the radio waves emitted from the detection unit, and the first region has an uneven shape for diffusing the light emitted from the light source, and the second region does not have the uneven shape.

The present disclosure discloses a braking-alerting triggering device for a vehicle brake lever. The triggering device includes a fastener provided at a brake handle, wherein the fastener is connected to a flexible linking member, and a triggering pushing block is connected to one free end of the flexible linking member; a mounting base is provided on the side of the brake handle, a power-supply module, a micro-controlling module and a wireless-signal emitting module are provided inside the mounting base, and the wireless-signal emitting module is connected to a wireless-signal receiving module inside an external warning light by using a wireless signal; the micro-controlling module is connected to the wireless-signal emitting module; and a triggering switch matching with the triggering pushing block is provided inside the mounting base, and the triggering switch is circuit-connected to the micro-controlling module. The device is used to emit a signal when a vehicle is braking.

Embodiments of the present disclosure include a wireless remote control or remote control application for controlling the lighting of an electronic personal transportation vehicle. Embodiments can solve problems related to sharing electronic personal transportation vehicles by uniquely identifying a user, and allowing that user to control the lighting of the electronic personal transportation vehicle. In this manner, other users can control the lighting at different times, depending on the specific person that is using the electronic personal transportation vehicle at any given time.

A motorcycle includes a brake lamp, a brake operation unit, a first switching unit, a second switching unit, and a brake controller. The first switching unit is switched a circuit state so that a driving current is supplied to the brake lamp while the brake operation is being performed. The second switching unit is switched the circuit state between a closed state in which the driving current is supplied to the brake lamp regardless of the brake operation and an opened state in which the second switching unit is not electrically connected with the brake lamp. The brake controller controls to actuate the brake and switches the second switching unit from the opened state to the closed state when the brake activation condition is met.
