In addition to training forklift drivers, a safety-conscious operation encourages pedestrians to stay alert to potential accidents. This safety light system uses three LED light bars to help pedestrians stay forklift-aware for improved safety. Two white light bars mount to the front of the forklift, while a third mounts to the rear and changes from white to red when the vehicle shifts to reverse. The moving light makes vehicles more noticeable to pedestrians and other drivers, and the red light provides a warning signal for reversing forklifts. Lights mount easily using brackets and magnetic bases.
