Bill overview
This bill, the Collision Avoidance Systems Act of 2019, allows vehicles like cars, trucks, and buses to be equipped with a special flashing light system for high-mounted stop lamps. This system would pulse rapidly when the brakes are applied, then switch to a continuous light when the brakes are released. The system is designed to improve visibility and potentially reduce rear-end collisions, with a brief pause before flashing again.
