LED Hide-a-Ways – How LED Hide-a-Ways Can Be Useful
If you work as a police officer doing undercover work then you know how important it is not to be noticed by motorists. If someone notices your unmarked car and then flashes warnings to other drivers, your investigation could be compromised. You may only be trying to discover drivers who are violating the speed limit, but your chances of catching anyone doing that are next to nothing if everyone can clearly identify your police vehicle. LED hide-a-ways can let you operate your vehicle as a public safety vehicle without revealing that the vehicle is being used as a public safety vehicle.
Most vehicles designed for public safety are built so that additional lights and light bars can be added to the vehicles. The additional lights make the vehicle conspicuous as a police vehicle and motorists and pedestrians understand that the vehicle is a police vehicle. This can be valuable when responding to an emergency call. But sometimes you may be in an unmarked police car, and you may do surveillance work or other investigative type work and then you will need to remain undercover. If you use LED hide-a-ways, then your vehicle will look the same as other vehicles and motorists will not think that your vehicle is a police vehicle.
Let’s say you are in an unmarked police vehicle and you are parked in the median at the bottom of a hill on a highway. Other drivers and motorists may not interpret your vehicle as a police vehicle and may continue driving over the speed limit. Then you can effectively turn on the LED hide-a-ways and pursue a driver who was exceeding the speed limit. If the grill lights and light bars were displayed on the exterior of the police vehicle then it would have been obvious to motorists that your vehicle is a police vehicle. Drivers who were violating the speed limit will suddenly slow down and you will not be able to find any drivers who are exceeding the speed limit.
When you choose your LED hide-a-ways, look for a brand that manufactures waterproof connections. You also want to be sure that the hide-a-ways are protected from moisture. Since doing police or investigative work often requires driving at high speeds, you want to make sure that the lights are able to resist vibration. You will want the hide-a-ways to have different flash patterns that you can select. Motorists see a rapidly flashing light as a signal that an emergency is occurring. This will allow you as an officer to continue chasing a suspect.
