Safetyflash-a passive vehicle warning system for communicating vehicular deceleration/acceleration by embedding high contrast visual display patterns in vehicle tire treads. A strip of white, yellow, red, or other high contrast colored rubber is embedded in black tire treads by tire manufactures to provide visual cues to following vehicles regarding vehicle deceleration and acceleration in low speed regimes associated with stop and go traffic. This invention helps prevent rear end collisions and reduces vehicle collision potential for bicycles or motorcycles
