A light bar cover for covering a light bar is provided, which comprises a cover portion, hinges, cover handles, hook rings, and one or more hooks. The cover portion is configured for covering a front portion of the light bar. The hinges are installed between the cover portion and the light bar, so as to open and close the cover portion about the hinges. Each of the cover handles is disposed on an exterior surface of the cover portion. Each of the hook rings is disposed on an exterior surface of the light bar. The hooks are configured for holding each of the cover handles and a corresponding hook ring, so as to hold securely the cover portion in an open position or a close position.

Provided are: an aromatic polycarbonate resin composition which has excellent hue and is suitable as a molding material for light guide members; and a molded article which is obtained by molding this aromatic polycarbonate resin composition. An aromatic polycarbonate resin composition which contains: an aromatic polycarbonate resin (A); and 0.01-0.1 part by mass of a phosphite-based stabilizer (B-I) represented by general formula (I), which serves as a phosphorus-based stabilizer (B), and 0.05-2 parts by mass of a polyalkylene glycol compound (C), per 100 parts by mass of the aromatic polycarbonate resin (A). In the formula, each of R.sup.11-R.sup.18 represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group; each of R.sup.29-R.sup.22 represents an alkyl group, an aryl group or an aralkyl group; and each of a-d represents an integer of 0-3.

A vehicle assembly includes, among other things, a lighting assembly moveable back and forth between an attached position and a detached position. The lighting assembly spans from a first rail assembly of a vehicle to a second rail assembly of the vehicle when the lighting assembly is in the attached position. A vehicle lighting method includes, when a lighting assembly is in an attached position, engaging a first end portion of the lighting assembly with a first rail assembly of a vehicle, and when the lighting assembly is in the attached position, engaging an opposite, second end portion of the lighting assembly with a second rail assembly of the vehicle. The lighting assembly is configured to illuminate an area adjacent a vehicle when the lighting assembly is in the attached position.

Problem: To provide an autonomous driving indication system that allows a pedestrian or another vehicle to clearly discriminate driving states of an autonomous driving vehicle and provide a vehicle communication system capable of sending an appropriate message to a pedestrian from a vehicle according to the probability of the pedestrian crossing the road. Means to Solve the Problem: Left and right headlamps (3) are each provided with a first communication lamp (6) and a second communication lamp (7) for indicating an autonomous driving state of a vehicle (1). The first and second communication lamps (6) and (7) are each comprised of a plurality of light emitting segments, and each light emitting segment is caused to flash by a lamp ECU. When flashing the light emitting segments, the lamp ECU controls the change in the brightness of the light emitting segments according to the driving state of the vehicle. A vehicle ECU or the lamp ECU is provided with a probability computing unit for calculating the probability that a pedestrian will cross the road, and a control unit for switching the light output of light emitting segments individually or in unison according to the probability.

A vehicle light assembly includes auxiliary lighting. The auxiliary light includes a base that may comprise a circuit board and a heat sink material. A series of auxiliary lights, such as LEDs, are attached to the base. A fastener extends through a mounting hole in the base to attach the base to the vehicle lighting shroud or trim. The auxiliary lights may be in an annular array, typically called a halo, or in numerous other linear or geometric shapes.

The present disclosure relates an integrated module including a camera and a lamp, and may include a camera that acquires an image of a periphery of a vehicle and provide the image, at least one first lamp and at least one second lamp disposed at at least one location of an upper side and a lower side of the camera in a direction of a transverse axis of the camera, and a lamp controller that provides electrical energy for the first lamp to the first lamp and provides electrical energy for the second lamp to the second lamp according to daytime/nighttime determination information based on the image.
