Maybe tell them how tower lights are white strobes during the day but are required to change to lower intensity red at night.

Often approaching an accident all I can see are the cop car lights. Can’t see the cop directing traffic or literally anything going on. Extremely unsafe. The problem is they have no intensity setting. It’s day mode all the time!!!! On Dec 1, 2020, at 7:24 PM, Steve Jones <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > wrote: crazy dangerous. The worst are the snowplows. it used to be in bad snowstorms was a godsend to get behind a plow where you could follow their lights. now you will die because youre blinded if youre within a mile of it. There is no additional "safety" for emergency services ove the prior existing lights that actually had science behind the color, cadence and brightness, On Tue, Dec 1, 2020 at 6:13 PM Jim Bouse [Brazos WiFi] <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > wrote: I agree. I brought this up at a fire department meeting and they acted as if I had proposed removing all lights. I was just pointing out that at some point, it becomes dangerous to bystanders.

I was about 1/2 mile behind an ambulance and the flashing LED's were so bright in front of me that I could barely make out the traffic light I was stopped at. And why does the ambulance need to have approximately 200,000 LED Fixtures on it? I get it, I see you, I can't not see you, now I can't see anything else. They saw an open piece of sheet metal and were like, 'We could put another strobe there' It's even worse when there are multiple vehicles together at an accident scene. I understand having them bright during the day, but they are just blinding at night. It's like they need to have a day/night mode. Who do I write a strongly worded letter to expressing my displeasure? -- AF mailing list [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
