Mirror® Technology 
|
|
Signal® mirrors use high intensity
lights to change ordinary exterior rearview mirrors into safety
features that command attention. When a turn signal is activated,
a flashing chevron appears in the
corresponding side mirror to alert drivers in the "blind spots"
around and behind your vehicle.
The mirrors operate as regular rearview mirrors whether the turn
signals are activated or not.

Blind Spot Coverage
|
Improved Reaction Time
|
|
Drivers in the colored "blind spots" are alerted of the
intentions of a vehicle equipped with Signal®
mirrors.
|
Signal® mirrors illuminate
faster than
conventional tail lamps.

Every
year there are over 375,000 lane-change and merging traffic
accidents. Over 700 of these accidents result in fatalities.
Signal® mirrors are positioned at the eye level of adjacent
drivers making them more noticeable than conventional tail
lights. With the increased popularity of taller vehicles, i.e.
SUV's, trucks and mini-vans, a turn signal from the tail lamp
may be "hidden" by these larger vehicles. The high intensity
light from the Signal® mirror may be the only visible
indicator to drivers two or three cars back. |
|
Signal®
mirrors use LED lamps which illuminate 1/5 of a second faster
than conventional incandescent tail lights. This provides
drivers in the "blind spot" of the Signal® mirror
equipped vehicle an additional 17 feet of reaction distance when
traveling at 65 m.p.h. Thus, unlike other accessories that
soften an accident, Signal® mirrors actually may help
prevent one. |

High Visibility

Driver Awareness

The Signal® mirror is visible from
several car lengths back.

Signal® mirrors use high-intensity LED lamps to turn
ordinary exterior rearview mirrors into safety features that
command attention. When a turn signal is activated, a flashing
chevron appears in the corresponding side mirror to alert
drivers in the "blind spot" of your intentions.
When emergency hazard flashers are used, both
mirrors flash warning signals. The mirrors function as
conventional rearview mirrors whether the signals or hazards are
activated or not. |
|
While surrounding
drivers see a bright, attention-getting display, the driver of
the vehicle equipped with Signal® mirrors sees only a
subtle tell-tale display - a reminder the mirror is activated. |
