Look at videos of LED headlights. You’ll see them flicker, and that’s not a feature. It has to do with the FPS of the video relative to the LED flicker rate. It’s an modern version of when spinning wagon wheels would seem to freeze or spin slowly in the movies. Maybe that’s before your time.

Yes, that's a well known effect too, but NOT what the OP was referring to in this post as "blinking brake lights" that he sees more and more on the streets (i.e. not in video footage): https://g20.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...postcount=1839

Exactly!
