Police vehicle lights are an essential tool for law enforcement officers on duty. The flashing lights on a police vehicle serve as a signal to other drivers and pedestrians that law enforcement is present, and they can help prevent accidents and keep everyone on the road safe. At the 2023 Police Fleet Conference (PFC), fleet professionals can engage in a discussion about the science behind police lighting and get a look at the technology available for law enforcement lights.
In Light it Up: Spotlight on Law Enforcement Vehicle Lighting, retired deputy commissioner of support services for the New York City Police Department Robert Martinez shares about police lighting. Through Martinez's leadership, the department was the first to use an LED light bar. Additionally, Martinez will be joined by representatives from major law enforcement lighting manufacturers, who will engage in a discussion about lighting technology.
