Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“I noticed at night while I was stopped at an intersection, while holding the front brake lever, brake lights were not actuated. Brake lights would come on if I squeezed the brakes harder, but the amount of pressure required to hold bike still while stopped on both the front and rear brakes would not actuate brake lights. This poses a safety hazard particularly at night when I am stopped and other drivers have no indication of me being stopped.”
