Almost getting rear ended is rough. I bet its almost as bad as actually getting rear ended.

No hitch and brake wiring. And freegdr knows EXACTLY what I'm talking about. The drivers down here suck! And yes, i know my top light works because I just replaced last month AND checked it last night. Did you guys check that link? What ya think???

x2 get a hitch it will protect you and if you want put a brake light in it...

i honestly don't think the flashing car light will work... someone might be dumb enough to crash into you more because they might think you are pumping your brakes...
