Emergency vehicle lights are widely used

Tow trucks, also known as recovery trucks, are another category of vehicles, which need emergency vehicle lights. These vehicles, used to transport non-drivable motor vehicles to another location, are large in them selves, and would be dragging larger burdens behind them. For getting the lane clear, and for warning others of their huge presence, they have to use emergency lights. Other vehicles that use emergency lights are vehicles used by bomb disposal squads, coast guards, or by people involved in rescue operations. Tractors or pickup truck fitted with snow plows doing the job of snow removal, vehicles at construction sites, and vehicles parked on dark roads may also sport emergency vehicle lights.


Emergency vehicle lights can become a necessity even for ordinary citizens going about their routine jobs. When people have to drive through private property roads or forest paths that are unmarked and unlighted, they should ideally use emergency flashing lights on their vehicles. Emergency lights are necessary to warn others of vehicle presence on such roads, which are normally bereft of vehicles, so that human beings and animals could be wandering in the darkness. On these roads, emergency vehicle lights are also necessary to increase the visibility of the driver in all directions.
