Abstract

The vehicle safety system produces a supplemental warning signal when a braking system of an associated vehicle is actuated. The system includes a warning signal coupled to a wire loop and a flux generator adapted to be coupled to the braking system of the vehicle. When the braking system of the vehicle is actuated the flux generator draws current from the vehicle and the flux generator creates flux when the braking system is actuated to power the warning signal.
