To
increase road safety, the European Commission decided in 2011 to
configure a variety of new motor vehicles dedicated daytime running
lights. By then, LED will be more widely used in automobiles. It is
understood that dedicated daytime running lights is a kind of motor
vehicles can be launched automatically when you open a special lamp, it
will greatly enhance the degree of motor vehicles to other road users
visibility, but also with the currently used light in comparison to the
past energy-saving, power consumption is only 25-30% of normal
headlights, if you use LED technology, power consumption is only 10% of
normal headlights. In some countries have mandatory requirements to
install daytime running lights, many manufacturers have started white
LED daytime running lights. The European Commission said that
experience in the field of road safety have given an affirmative
answer. From the perspective of the surrounding environment,
specialized on-line light can improve visibility, while allowing
vehicles more significant, this daytime use in specialized technologies
than the existing lighting fixtures more direct and effective. Based on
existing research, if equipped with daytime running lights, road users,
including pedestrians, cyclists and motor vehicles opened by anyone who
has an earlier and better detection and identification of motor
vehicles. The driver in the dark if you open the regular headlights,
the daytime running lights automatically shut down. At present, the EU
has not yet received the resolution of the 27 member states of the law
is passed, but is expected to February 7, 2011 all new passenger cars
and small trucks must be installed daytime running lights, trucks and
buses may be delayed 18 months to August 2012. |
