Abstract

A signaling device consists of single or multiple rows or banks of lights extending the entire width of both the front (FIG. 13) and rear (FIG. 14) of a vehicle that are alternately turned on and off in such a precise, timed, sequential manner (FIGS. 1-7) so as to give the visual effect of a row of lights moving or traveling in either the right or left direction, moving sign style, depending on which direction the driver of the vehicle indicates. The system also consists of a slowing or stopping warning feature whereas the rear row or rows of lights (112), upon activation of the brake pedal, divides its traveling or running effect from the centerline toward both the right and left sides simultaneously (FIGS. 10-12), giving the visual effect of the rear bank of lights coming toward the observer. With the use of multiple rows of lights (FIGS. 9-12 and 14), the patterns of lights may be staggered or sequenced to create vertical bars (FIG. 9), chevron-shaped arrows (FIG. 10), or diagonal bars (FIGS. 11 and 12) of light moving in the direction desired.
