My son who was with me also commented that he thought the brake lights were not working. We even tried taking off our sun glasses, and you just could not see the brake lights. The second car up was a darker color, and we could see the brake lights very well on that car,

Maybe this has been talked about before, but thought I would mention it. I was thinking that maybe the LED lights or some other brighter bulb might help. I love red on these cars, and don't want to knock on a color. Maybe we should all take a look at our brake lights on a bright sunny day.

Be careful. Not all LED bulbs are brighter. Take a look at the attached link.
