It's very distracting and almost caused me to rear end the car in front of me more than once.

Flashing lights are for emergency vehicles only and if someone claims they're legal in their state, city or county, I'll show you the law that says they're not.

Just because a dealer offers them as an option doesn't make them legal. Being illegal doesn't mean that you'll get pulled over or ticketed for it. I think it's in a gray area right now, but if enough people had them, there'd be an outright ban.

Can you imagine if even 1/3 of the cars on the road had these?

PW,

I was wondering when you were going to chime in. I did make a change to my third brake light. The only thing I have done and will do was to install 7 LED'S. My objective was to make it much brighter and it is now, and I like it that way.

Just my opinion, but I think this is the appropriate way to go. Most LED tail lights are painfully bright (I know mine are ).
