Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable the avoidance of a collision accident, etc., by interlocking a braking lamp unit attached on a helmet with the actuation of a braking lamp attached on the body of a motorcycle to increase the visibility from other vehicles. SOLUTION: After a braking lamp unit 10 having a braking lamp 11 consisting of a lamp bulb, a light-emitting diode, a fluorescent lamp, etc., is attached on a helmet 12 for a driver of a motorcycle, a connector 14 of a connecting cord 13 extending from an electric source box 15 placed on the body of the motorcycle is connected to a connector 16 at the above braking lamp unit 10. This enables the sending of signals interlocked with the braking lamp on the body of the motorcycle to the unit 10 to have a structure that, when the braking lamp on the body of the motorcycle is actuated and lighted up, the braking lamp 11 of the helmet 12 also is actuated and lighted up. Further, the braking lamp on the body of the motorcycle can be interlocked with the braking lamp unit 10 on the helmet through a wireless system, an ultrasonic system or a microwave system besides the above wire circuit system.
