Safety lighting system

A method for using a safety lighting system for a vehicle, wherein the safety lighting system comprises:

• i) a display cover including a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion, ii) at least one light source configured to selectively illuminate the first, second, and third portions of the display cover, and iii) a controller, the method comprising:
• receiving, at the controller, first acceleration/deceleration information and first braking information of the vehicle;
• determining, by the controller and based on the first acceleration/deceleration information, that the vehicle is accelerating, and in response, illuminating a first portion;
• receiving, at the controller, second acceleration/deceleration information and second braking information of the vehicle;
• determining, by the controller and based on the second acceleration/deceleration information and the second braking information, that the vehicle is decelerating without a braking action, and in response, illuminating a second portion;
• receiving, at the controller, third acceleration/deceleration information and third braking information of the vehicle;
• and
• determining, by the controller and based on the third acceleration/deceleration information and the third braking information, that the vehicle is decelerating with a braking action, and in response, illuminating a third portion.

A safety lighting system for a vehicle, the safety lighting system comprising:

• a first light source;
• a second light source;
• a third light source;
• a display cover that encloses the first light source, the second light source, and the third light source;
• and
• a controller communicatively coupled to the vehicle and configured to receive at least one of acceleration/deceleration information, braking information, or throttle control information relating to the vehicle,
• wherein the controller is configured to:
• responsively cause illumination to the first light source upon receiving information associated with at least one of acceleration or operation of the throttle of the vehicle;
• responsively cause illumination to the second light source upon receiving information associated with at least one of relatively low deceleration of the vehicle or deceleration of the vehicle without braking;
• and
• responsively cause illumination second light source upon receiving information associated with at least one of relatively high deceleration or braking of the vehicle.
