What message do a vehicle's brake lights give road users behind it?
Correct answer: The driver is braking to slow down or stop.
Why
Brake lights warn that the vehicle is slowing or stopping, and they can remain on while the driver holds the brake at a temporary stop. Check the developing situation and your following gap. Do not treat the lights as permission to overtake or assume they reveal every hazard ahead.
