Some Opels and BMW have the rear brake lights flash have seen in action myself. Even was behind one last week which was faulty as any time they braked it would keep flashing.

It's good I keep a safe distance.

I was hoping to tap into the power for the radio. I would use the courtesy light but already using that for an auto dimming mirror.
