I found myself behind a Honda with the new led tail lights in a traffic jam and I am concerned that these are a safety hazard. They made me physically ill. I had to pull over and then I had a migraine and a Mini seizure. Not good if I was on the road.

This is a complaint about a particular model car that I do not own, but have driven behind at night. The brake lights on the new, 2007 I think, Honda Accord, are painfully bright. They are so bright, I pulled down the visor to shield my eyes the other night, and my 12 year old child complained because she could not effectively do the same. I have noticed this several times at dark, and have finally remembered to sit down and submit a complaint. This model Honda Accord has led taillights. The taillights are not too bright, when the car is not braking. It is just when the car is braking and the brake lights are on. I have noticed many other cars using led lights, such as Hyundai's and kia's that do not have this issue. Is there a standard of brightness that lights are measured against? I think these must fail. They are too bright, and should at least be adjusted on unsold cars, and next year's model. Thanks for your consideration.

This is not so much a failure as a question/suggestion about what regulations are in place for us standards of rear taillight assemblies. A lot of manufactures have gone to using red turn signals that also serve as brake lights. The problem I have, and I'm sure this has caused accidents, is that when someone is indicating a turn 90% of the time they must brake to do so. But the act of braking obscures the turn indicator. When one turns they drop a lot more speed then someone braking with traffic. The uniformly red turn/brake light assemblies can cause confusion among drivers behind the turning vehicle and lead to misinterpretation of the drivers intention and lead to accidents. Has any study been done involving rear-end accidents involving turning vehicles? there is probably a higher % involving vehicles with red rear-turn signals. Im hoping that the NHTSA will perform a study regarding red turn signals and propose new regulations that require automakers to use yellow lenses for all rear-turn signals. Another issue with them is when the vehicles hazard lights are on. Having blinking yellow lights will alert drivers much quicker to the presence of a disabled vehicle than blinking red lights. The red lights will blend in with any other vehicle braking to slow due to the hazard. Thank you for taking the time to read my question, if this is not the right department for such a compliant/suggestion, can you please forward it to the appropriate personal. Could you also notify me of the proper department and its contact information for making such suggestions? thanks.
