Slam the brakes, and Adaptive Brake Lights flash five times per second. Sounds like a small thing, but Mercedes’s tests in Europe show that the flashing better alerts drivers to emergency braking ahead and prevents accidents. It’s now available only on the E-Class sedans in Europe and its flagship S600 here in the U.S. Federal regulations prohibit flashing lights anywhere on a vehicle, but Mercedes got an exemption so that it could prove the technology in a small number of cars in hopes of standardizing it. mbusa.com
