Patented U-Turn Signal Kit Introduces a More Distinct Way for Drivers to Communicate U-Turn Intentions
illi News/10345345

CHICAGO - illiNews -- A patented automotive signaling concept called the U-Turn Signal Kit has been developed to address a familiar driving situation: the difficulty other motorists may have determining whether a vehicle displaying a conventional turn signal intends to make a standard turn or a U-turn.

The U-Turn Signal Kit introduces dedicated illuminated U-turn indicators designed to provide a more specific visual indication of a driver's intended maneuver.

The concept incorporates exterior and interior lighting assemblies along with a driver-operated activation device. The exterior signal is intended to provide visibility to oncoming and perpendicular traffic, while the rear-facing interior signal communicates the U-turn intention to motorists approaching from behind.

The wireless system is designed to allow the driver to activate the U-turn indicators from inside the vehicle without requiring a wired connection between the individual components. The lighting components are battery powered.

The concept has potential applications across private passenger vehicles, fleet vehicles and commercial vehicle markets.

By providing motorists with a dedicated visual indication for a U-turn, the concept is intended to improve communication between drivers during a maneuver that conventional vehicle turn signals do not specifically identify.

The U-Turn Signal Kit is available for licensing consideration by manufacturers and companies interested in automotive accessories, vehicle signaling technology and related transportation products.
