Safety device for motorized vehicles and methods of use thereof
First Claim
1. A safety devise for alerting a vehicle, compromising:
- a mountable lighting device capable of sending discrete flashing signals, the lighting device compromising;
a housing having a top component and a bottom component configured to define a front aperture when assembled together;
at least one opaque component within the front aperture of the housing;
a plurality of light-emitting diodes within the housing and projected toward the at least one opaque component;
a panel having a plurality of openings to receive the plurality of light-emitting diodes;
at least one printed circuit board within the housing and in electrical communication with the plurality of light-emitting diodes;
at least one power source within the housing for providing power to the printed circuit board; and
a biased switch in electrical communication with the lighting device wherein the biased switch is separate from the housing.

Abstract
Embodiments of a safety device for motorized vehicles and methods of use thereof are herein disclosed. In one embodiment, the safety device includes a mountable lighting device in electrical communication with a momentary switch. The lighting device may include a plurality of non-coherent light sources which may flash in a particular sequence. In one embodiment, the lighting device may be activated to flash once to signal to a motorist that a motorcyclist is to pass. The lighting device may be activated to flash twice to signal to a motorist that the motorcyclist is approaching. The lighting device may be activated to flash three times to signal to a motorist that the motorcyclist is passing.
