Could a front light prevent crashes?

A new study published in *Vehicles* explores the potential of front brake lights (FBLs) to improve safety at intersections. Using counterfactual simulation of 200 real-world crashes, researchers found that FBLs could prevent up to 17% of crashes and mitigate another 9-25%, offering a low-cost, retrofittable solution to a common cause of accidents while waiting for widespread adoption of advanced driver-assistance systems.
