Flashing LED lights and trailer towing safety

[Dragsinger]

This season I am towing through heavy traffic [Dallas area, loop 635, I -20 and I - 35 North] and am looking for ideas to be as safe as possible in that heavy traffic.

My rig is s 40 foot goose neck that handles and stops very well, no problems at all with driving braking, acceleration etc. [of course, taking the size and weight into that statement] But as we all understand, other drivers are sometimes very aggressive in heavy traffic, lots of lane changing, pulling front of, etc. And as we all understand, I can not make those sudden moves.

So I have been thinking about the flashing LED lights I see on some commercial trucks. Trash trucks, cement trucks, and others.

My question, what is the Texas Law in ref to those flashing lights. Or do we have other safety suggestions?

Is this safety/heavy traffic issue something other of you have concerns with? Do you have any "comfort" suggestions? And understand, I am not a "wimp" driver and have a good, accident free driving history. I can handle my rig just fine, it is the other drivers doing those unexpected moves that have the "puckered up" Smile
