Innovation to improve road safety
The emergency beacons are an important element that you should know, since the General Vehicle Regulations have set 2026 as the date on which they must replace the usual triangles. There are already several models for sale, but it is essential to make the best choice and Flash LED, the new brand of KPSport Group, offers several options that must be taken into account. Among them, there is one that will make a difference: the FlashLED SOS geolocation beacon.
This Spanish company already has more than two decades of experience in the distribution of technology and this has allowed it to create a complete range of products. In it there are various bollards of national design and manufacture, including conventional versions such as the FlashLED V16, which is already available. However, on a more innovative side is the FlashLED SOS, which will be on sale soon.
This is the company’s most advanced model, since it unites the qualities of a V16 beacon with the advantages of new technologies. Its use is as simple as any other similar emergency light, but its main strength is that it can be connected to the DGT 3.0 platform when it is available, which has great advantages.
This connection will occur when the beacon is activated in the event of a breakdown or accident and its objective is to increase safety, as well as to facilitate attention to those individuals involved in an incident. The task of this device will be to send our position to the DGT, which will facilitate the work of the emergency services and will also notify other drivers more effectively.
Without a doubt, this will help to significantly reduce the risk on the roads, but Flash LED will go a little further with the future launch of the SOS Alert app. It will be an assistant focused on action in an emergency and its qualities can be combined with those of the FlashLED SOS.
With this application, contact with other individuals will be much easier in the event that we find ourselves in a risky situation behind the wheel. We will be able to call close contacts or make announcements, and we know that new technologies can be of great help in emergency situations, so this is the test. With easy use, high quality and a good approach, beacons like the FlashLED SOS are here to stay and there is no doubt that they will drastically change things in terms of road safety.
