On the mercs, they are in the high beam headlights extremely effective. Much better than low beam flashing headlights.

Has any one seen coloured headlight strobes in any emerg vehicles.

Do you have a video with these strobe headlights you speak of...or are you saying they flash on high beam rather than low beam??

i suppose they would, but because there's only a few vans I'm less likely to see them. Unless they brought someone to Swan Districts in which case there may be a chance.
