Keeping Road Visibility

car owner needs the full coordination of individual car parts to make driving a breeze. Different parts are made, not just to give aesthetic value, but also to offer safety. One such component is the tail light. Carmakers have design thousands of tail light patents to better equip their car models. For instance, one trademark of Buick cars is having wide tail lights. Aside from making stylish statements for a Buick, to the Buick tail lights keep visibility on the rear end. Through tail lights, safety gets another ally.
For the road ahead, a set of Buick headlights keep the driver's visibility in tact under any condition. Sometimes, not even the street lamps are sufficient in providing light on the road. Efficient headlights are thus needed. Beam intensity depends on what the driver needs. This is controlled by a switch located right by the steering wheel. When the road has enough night lights, Buick headlights are usually turned to its “low beam” mode. Illumination range is relatively short. Turning on the “high beam” mode, on the other hand, helps when the road is poorly lit. In this mode, the headlights expand the bulbs’ illumination ’high,’ enabling wider and longer illumination range. A high beam mode, though helpful most of the time, create glares causing poor visibility to opposite lane drivers.
Other auxiliary lights are included in Buick's lighting system -- the fog lights and the turn signal lights. While the headlights help the driver keep road visibility in the dark, the fog lights are the ones that supplement the headlights to see through tough weather conditions. Given the name, fog lights are especially useful during foggy conditions where road visibility is hard. The turn signal lenses, on the other hand, blink to indicate when a vehicle is making a turn towards a specific direction. The risk of accidents caused by “road miscommunication” is therefore reduced.
