Trivia time

The Oldsmobile Toronado, with it's trunk-mounted brake lights suffered less rear end collisions than any other car at the time, and it was attributed to those upper brake lights according to a retired cop friend of mine.
That was the car that got the ball rolling so to speak, for 3rd brake lights.
Personally, I hate the damned 3rd brake light. I know they most likely help some, but even today, they still look like crap to me. LOL I guess because I remember before they were used.
