Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a process and an arrangement for indicating the braking intensity or the deceleration of a vehicle. A signal generating device generates a signal corresponding to a deceleration of the vehicle, or a brake pedal force of the driver. An indicating device, which has at least two brake lights, indicates braking information assigned to the respective signal and a controller controls the indicating device on the basis of the signal provided by the signal generating device. The indicating device outputs various signals which correspond to various respective levels of braking intensity. The braking signal information is provided in a detailed form which does not have to be learned separately but which can be perceived directly by the driver based on knowledge already stored in the driver's subconscious from normal driving operation and experience.
