EDIT: Some more information and now the video !
So I am at an EVOC class today and the department that is hosting it is Anti-Chevron Striping... they like the therory but hate duel reflective colors...stating that duel reflective colors are to "busy" and distracting.
So they decided to use LEDs to make a Chevron in Amber / Red with Whelen Strip-Lites...
Flash pattern is a slow 1.9 fpm plan alternating from Amber to Red... The leds come on when the breaks are applied and also applied when the truck is placed into "park" (as we all know it goes into Nutural and air breaks are applied)
As far as some comments from here because the LEDs are not always on...I've never experanced or heard of a Fire Truck / Ambulance being rear ended while the apparattus was going down the road itself...
Here are some pics. NEW VIDEO UPLOADED !
TURN YOUR VOLUME DOWN...THE TRUCK AND THE 2 WEEK OLD EMT ARE ANNOYING
