Therefore, a following car 2 is separated, for example, about 50m or more off, the eyes of a driver 8 who drives the following car are positioned at the area 7 outside the diffracted light beam area 6 and nothing can be seen from the hologram 3. However, when the following car 2 gets closer to about 50m, the eyes of the driver 8 of the following car 2 is within the field of vision 6 and the characters 'STOP' of the hologram 3 can be seen.
