It's a simple install and I'm glad to have finally done it. Now when I hit the brakes it flashes 3 times quickly and then stays on as long as the break pedal is depressed.
Does it do any good?, well I can't say. But with all the inept drivers (it's an overstatement to refer to them as drivers) on the road, what can it hurt?
Last I check, most states will ticket drivers for a unauthorized use of a flashing red light... whether applied by brake pedal, switch in cabin or even depressing the break pedal you have in your vehicle.

Doubt any such devices are DOT or NHTSA approved... but good luck
