Abstract: An enhanced motor vehicle warning system provides flashing lights in response to the sounding of the horn. The driver can either enable or disable the system. When the system is enabled and the horn is sounded, latching and time delay relays close to provide power to various lamps and in particular to the high beam lamps and back-up lamps. This power, through the latching relay, is provided through a flasher so that these lamps provide a visible flashing light signal in synchronism with the flasher for the predetermined time period set by the time delay relay. Parking lamps may also be energized, if they are off. But preferably not through the flasher.

Abstract: The present invention provides a pants-like garment having a stretchable construction. The garment includes a waistband configured to encircle the waist of a wearer and a covering portion configured to encircle the trunk of the wearer. The covering portion has a front section connected, adjacent its top edge, to the waistband and a rear section connected to the front section. A strip of two-way stretchable material having an elasticity in a pair of directions, perpendicular to the waistband and parallel to the waistband, connects the top edge of the rear section of the garment covering portion to the waistband. When the wearer bends over or twists his or her trunk, the strip of elastic material stretches to prevent deformation of the waistband and prevent exposure of the buttocks of the wearer.
