On certain scooters, the taillight bulb does not meet the regulation standards for intensity of illumination for the brake lamp. A brake lamp which isn't as bright as required could result in following road users being unaware of the driver's intentions, as well as reducing vehicle conspicuity during hours of darkness. This could result in a vehicle crash causing personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will replace the taillight bulb.
