Cop Car Lights
Police vehicles and other first responders have to deal with a lot of careless drivers that are preoccupied with cell phones, iPods and various distractions on a regular basis. Cop car lights are specially made to deal with these circumstances. These emergency lights are used to enable first responders to get to scenes quicker as well as help clear bystanders away from overcrowded situations. They provide an entire 360 degrees of visibility so that people all around the scene can be aware of the situation.
Because they often have to travel at high speeds, the use of cop car lights alert fellow drivers that they need to get out of the way immediately. For police, they often have to stop and identify people in darkly lit situations so these strobe lights can help there as well. Generally, cop car lights are placed on the roof or the dashboard of the police vehicle for greatest visibility.
The history of police lights has gone through many changes over the past few decades. Years ago these lights used to be simple red lights that flashed predictably. Now police lights have come to have complex patterns that attract attention. The latest design includes two-colored LED light bars that have different combinations of blue, red and yellow colors. These colors are the most common colors that will be found in police vehicles and this is done on purpose so that people will know what to do when they see familiar lights. There are also a few other types of lights that are used by police vehicles.
Stick lights
Stick lights have switches that can be turned on and off. They are typically made from some of the brightest LED lights and are designed so that they can maintain brightness even with low currents so as not to drain the car batteries. These cop car lights are used on the interior and exterior of the vehicle and can come in all different patterns.
Exterior Strobes
Strobe lights are a normal part of the repertoire of cop car lights. As with the other police lights, they come in the typical blue, red and yellow colors and are usually only used on the exterior of the car. Most of these lights are considered to be energy-saving, easy to install, use and remove.
Dual LEDs
We already briefly discussed dual color LEDs. These allow the first responders to easily turn on attractive blue and red lights that flash in colors that people are familiar with. However, police vehicles are not the only vehicles that use these police lights. Emergency service trucks such as snowplows and firefighting vehicles also use dual color LEDs on the job. The lights serv to either signal that the vehicle is an emergency vehicle or they can be used in response to emergencies that are not police related such as fires and special types of accidents.
