Zusammenfassung:In a method of operating a turn signal lighting system, in a flashing cycle a first group of a plurality of LED groups arranged in a row is initially activated, with each of the LED groups including at least one light emitting diode. Thereafter, the other groups of the plurality of LED groups are successively activated until the plurality of LED groups are all in an ON state. The plurality of LED groups is then maintained in the ON state for a predetermined time period before being deactivated. The overall time period from activating the first group of the plurality of LED groups up until reaching the ON state of the plurality of LED groups ranges hereby from 100 ms to 200 ms.
