Indicators

Indicators or turn signals are blinking lamps mounted on the left and right front and rear corners of your vehicle. These signal lights or marker lights are known as front side marker or rear turn signal based on their location. In some cars they are also found on the sides of the vehicle and are known as fender signal lights. They are used to indicate when the driver wishes to turn the car to left or right sides or to indicate his desire to change lanes. Although not mandatory in the US and Canada, many countries insist that vehicles must have side-mounted signal indicators or side marker lights to make it visible laterally rather than just to the front and rear of the cars.

Whether you drive a car or a truck in the dark, automotive lights are crucial for all vehicles. A car headlight, headlamp and tail light are as important to a car as a truck headlight, truck headlamp and tail light to a truck. When looking for replacement parts for automotive lighting you need to go for the best brands.

Automotive lighting consists of lighting equipment fitted to the front, rear, sides and top of a motor vehicle. Their purpose is to illuminate the road ahead for the driver and increase the visibility of the vehicle to other drivers and pedestrians. The lights serve to indicate the location of the car, its position, size, direction in which it is travelling and its speed. Simultaneously, they assist the driver of the vehicle to know whether it is safe to drive on the road ahead or if there are other vehicles or obstacles in his way. The lighting enables him to gauge the distance between his vehicle and objects in the distance even though it is dark all around. All vehicle lighting and signals need to comply with technical standards that sipulate minimum and maximum permissible intensity levels. They need to adhere to minium horizontal and vertical angles of visibility and minimum illuminated surface area to ensure that they are visible from all the required and relevant angles. Headlights and tail lights are the lifeblood of vehicles on the road. At night you cannot drive safely without them. Equally important are side indicators or side markers. They convey your intentions to other drivers and people on the road. They not only highlight your vehicle in the dark but also alert other drivers when and where you are turning. They add visibility to your vehicle and indicate when you change lanes to the person driving behind you. Tail lights are distinct from the other lights on your car and in some vehicles they are stylish. However, their main purpose is to let other drivers know which way you are travelling, when you intend to stop and turn, or just park alongside the road. They are very crucial for your safety especially when travelling in the dark. Without them your car may not be visible to others.
