what would be a better alternative color?
to me the placement seems substantially different from the reversing light (which is usually more toward the middle of the back)
of course these pictures probably don't tell much about how it will actually look like in traffic, but some kind of pattern seems to be the way to go (that's recognizable from 2-3 cars afar in a traffic jam, for example if folks are curious WTF that particular car is doing, why is it stopped or going slow)
- lopis 3y agoThe alternative is a light in a predictable position or with a standard shape. I really hate that EVs are trying to be all modern about light systems redesigns. Specially in the US, car manufacturers are being very creative with their new designs in ways that are not even legal in Europe. I hope international standards for human-friendly lights can be agreed upon soon.
- s3p 3y agoOP's complaint was about the color.
- 48r9ridjjd 3y agoThe point of the light is primarily for specific people like law enforcement to be able to identify that the vehicle has self-driving mode engaged so that they don't pull the operator over erroneously. Is it actually an issue if Joe Colorblind can't tell that the person he's passing has automated driving enabled?
- lopis 3y agoIt's an issue if Joe is a color blind cop...
- LASR 3y agoCops can’t be colorblind? I don’t know if they have to do a test or something.
- manquer 3y agoBeat cops shouldn’t be ? It impairs their ability to do their job. They should identify the color of a car or a person’s apparel fairly accurately . How would a color blind cop catch say killer escaping in a teal car if they cannot identify that color ? Most Physical disabilities sadly would be disqualifying in some jobs line first responders or police, such jobs that at times require them to assist the physically challenged

- data-ottawa 3y agoYes. Imagine you’re in a parking lot and the car is in self driving. Is it in Reverse? I have no clue.
