The lights are mounted on the front, sides, rear, and in some cases on the top of a motor vehicle, making it more visible, especially in conditions of low light. Automotive lighting gives warning to other motor drivers and pedestrians about the presence and direction of travel. With the distinctive lighting equipment required in emergency vehicles to alert drivers and pedestrians as well as alarming crashes caused by ambulances, the demand for automotive lighting is on the rise amongst the emergency service providers, which in turn, is expected to create massive revenue generation opportunities for the key players operating in the global automotive lighting during the forecast period. For instance, it was observed that, the crash rate is over 4 per 100,000 responses, when an ambulance responds any emergency call without using sirens and lights.
