High-mounted truck tail lights comprising:

• a truck trailer body having a rear door assembly flanked by left and right vertical lateral pillars, a frame extending beneath the door assembly and between lower ends of the vertical lateral pillars, and an upper transverse pillar extending between upper ends of the vertical lateral pillars, the truck trailer body having existing tail lights which indicate braking and turning and are mounted to the frame of the truck trailer body beneath the door assembly thereof;
• left and right signal lights mounted to the respective lateral pillars proximal to the transverse pillar and distal from the frame of the truck trailer body, the signal lights being electrically interconnected with the existing tail lights of the truck trailer body, whereby a driver of the truck trailer body can signal braking and turning actions to drivers which are not immediately behind the truck trailer body to reduce accidents resulting from non-viewable highway signals during lane changing procedures;
