Emergency Lights

Type: component
PROBLEM

A toll booth needs visual authority when the audio authority has not worked.

SOLUTION

The Emergency Lights are a set of four high-intensity LED strobe units mounted at the corners of the Turn Pike head assembly producing alternating red and blue flash patterns at 200 candela per unit, providing the visual component of the enforcement response when activated alongside Nuke Code Mode or independently for lane hazard signaling. The strobe pattern is programmable by the operator from a dropdown in the home interface and ships with four presets: Standard Alert, Escalating Concern, Absolute Authority, and the unnamed fourth pattern that engineering added during development and did not label because they felt the name they had for it was not appropriate for operator-facing documentation. The lights are rated for continuous outdoor operation and are visible in daylight at 100 meters. Activation is logged with a timestamp and the reason field in the log is mandatory, which means the operator has to type something before the lights turn on, which was a deliberate design decision to ensure a minimum of one second of reflection occurs before escalation.
