I will have to post some pictures, but i have Strobe tubes in the headlights and in the rear lights. In addition to my LED lights i have in the bumper.
I have to have a permit for these lights, if a cop pulls somebody over and they do not have a permit, it can be anywhere from a simple ticket to impersonating an officer. I'd be careful

When I was a kid I had a red oscillating bar ( think knight rider) on the front of my slammed mini. I got pulled over by the PoPo on the fourth of July while out cruising with a bud. Luckily he gave me a warning and let me go.
But it was Kool while it lasted!

I guess any emergency lighting is better than nothing, but the drunks will still crash into you, and it seems like some people are attracted to flashing lights like a moth to a flame. The only thing I can suggest to do while running strobes would be the same thing I'd suggest to anyone stopped on the road. NEVER TURN YOUR BACK TO TRAFFIC! lol...
Good advice and thanks for your public service.

I really like those lights. That is a great idea, even if you can just show it off in front of your friends and shows.
