Abstract:
A vehicle display system (1) comprises a stationary detection means (34) and an indicator (2), which form a stationary vehicle detection means being operative to produce an indicator signal which is indicative of the vehicle being stationary. A vehicle display system (1) comprises a vehicle deceleration detection means (32) and an indicator (2), the detention means being operative to measure the magnitude of deceleration of a vehicle and generate a signal to drive the indicator and thereby generate a display indicative of the magnitude of vehicle deceleration, the vehicle deceleration detection means being independent of the vehicle braking system. The indicator can be an array of lamps (10 to 17) and the stationary vehicle indicator signal an animate display whereby the lamps are turned on and off. Additionally, there is provided a ranging device (60) which can be used to detect a trailing vehicle within a predetermined distance of the vehicle comprising the ranging device. The ranging device (60) may be used to initiate a change of the display generated by the vehicle display system (1).
