Brite-Strike Active Illumination traffic safety gloves

From 2000 through 2009, 154 officers were killed by a motorist while the officer was standing on the side of the road or directing traffic. This accounts for one quarter of all deaths in the line of duty.
The basic problem is that drivers today are inattentive due to texting, blaring their vehicle’s 12 speaker audio systems or talking on a cell phone.
Plymouth, MA-based Brite-Strike has announced its Active Illumination traffic gloves, with LED strips that blink to catch an inattentive driver’s attention. The Red Stop sign palm and green backhand are universal for stop/go. This new technology is simple and cheap but highly effective at night.
