Summary
As promoted in the Delaware Division of Motor Vehicles Motorcycle Operator Manual, it is recommended to motorcycle, Mopeds, and Motorized Scooter operators that they temporarily flash brake lights when stopping in order to increase visibility to other motorists. There are aftermarket products available that will automatically flash the brake lights up to five times, however these products are currently prohibited in the Delaware Code under the prohibition on flashing lights. This amendment will allow motorcycles, Mopeds, and Motorized Scooters to be equipped with this safety equipment.
Title
An Act To Amend Title 21 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Vehicle Equipment.
