Find the definitions for the various words within the said act.
Meaning of "white light" - apparently colorless light, for example ordinary daylight.
Meaning of “lens” - a piece of glass or other transparent material with curved sides for concentrating or dispersing light rays
Meaning of “Intermittent” - occurring at irregular intervals; not continuous or steady.
Meaning of “diffused" - to (cause something - light - to) spread in many directions diffused.
Meaning of “Rotating” - move or cause to move in a circle round an axis or center.
Meaning of “Strobe light” - A flash that produces high intensity short duration light pulses by electric discharge in a gas"
Meaning of “LED” - a light-emitting diode (a semiconductor diode which glows when a voltage is applied).
Taking all the above into consideration with the various definition, I understand the said act to allow the use of the modern or new generation lights that uses the LED technology. These light bars are white lights and they are diffused as is required by the said act. These bars depending on the configuration are able to flash in any direction as is allowed by the said Act.
