Summary

This bill would create a pilot program whereby motorcyclists are permitted to use flashing headlights as a way to alert other drivers of their presence, without allowing the use of flashing lights that would otherwise be used on emergency vehicles. The bill aims to protect motorcyclists on Delawares roads and has a sunsetting provision that will allow time for further traffic studies to determine the effectiveness of this pilot program.
