The apparatus comprises two identical control devices (11a, 11b) which generate activation commands (24a, 24b) for preventive lights (2a-2e) signalling the progress of a vehicle (1). Each of the control devices (11a, 11b) is provided with driver-operated inhibiting members (17a, 17b, 18) for inhibiting the generation of at least one of said activation commands (24a, 24b) which is to be inhibited. The control devices (11a, 11b) can be used in a complementary fashion from an activation or deactivation of the inhibiting members (17a, 17b, 18) which they respectively include, by distribution between the control devices (11a, 11b) of the activation commands (24a, 24b) which they respectively emit to activate preventive lights (2a-2e) which include at least one piece of preventive equipment (4).

Apparatus and methods for indicating sudden deceleration may involve modifying a vehicle brake lighting system with a support frame supporting a deceleration sensor, microcontroller, an energy storage component, and power circuitry. A portable deceleration warning system includes a portable sensor unit with an accelerometer, a transmitter, a power supply, and a microprocessor, and at least one portable illumination unit with a light emitter, a receiver, and a power supply. The portable sensor unit mounts reversibly to a vehicle and the portable illumination unit can be worn by an operator or passenger of the vehicle or be temporarily attached to the vehicle.

The present invention relates to a vest (1), comprising a strap (2), which is characterized in that the strap (2) comprises a lockable lock (2.1).

The invention relates to a motorcycle lamp (2) for implementing at least one lamp function. The motorcycle lamp (2) comprises a housing (4) having a light-emission aperture (6), a bracket (8) mounted on the housing (4) for securing the motorcycle lamp (2) to a motorcycle, at least one light source (10) disposed in the housing (4) and a front optics (12) made of a solid transparent material disposed between the at least one light source (10) and the light-emission aperture (6), wherein the at least one light source (10) comprises an LED and is disposed and oriented in the housing (4) such that it emits light in a main radiation direction (14) extending through the light-emission aperture (6), and wherein the front optics (12) closes the light-emission aperture (6) and deflects and shapes the light emitted by the at least one light source (10) to generate a light distribution corresponding to a lamp function implemented by the motorcycle lamp (2). In order for the lamp (2) to improve the lateral perceptibility without the use of additional optical elements in the optical path, it is proposed that a light-emission surface (16) of the front optics (12) has a first convex curvature when viewed in a horizontal plane (yz) and a second convex curvature when viewed in a vertical plane (xz), the latter being smaller than the first convex curvature in the horizontal plane (yz) or flat.

An approach is provided for determining vehicle maneuver events. The approach, for example, involves determining sensor data from a sensor of a device associated with a vehicle. The sensor data includes a maneuver parameter represented using a device frame of reference. The approach also involves transforming the maneuver parameter from the device frame of reference to an Earth frame of reference. The approach further involves automatically detecting a maneuver event of the vehicle based on the maneuver parameter as transformed to the Earth frame of reference. The approach further involves providing the detected maneuver event to a signaling unit associated with the vehicle.
