The Safety Flash approved V16 connected beacon marks a turning point in road safety in Spain. This innovative device, manufactured in Spain and connected in real time to the DGT 3.0 platform, offers precise geolocation, instant visibility, and advanced technology to keep you safe on the road.

Moreover, thanks to its integration with the INSPIDE Singularity platform and support from Telefónica Tech, the Safety Flash not only complies with current regulations but also enhances the driver’s experience toward a safer, more connected, and efficient mobility.

What is the Safety Flash connected V16 beacon and how does it work?

The Safety Flash V16 beacon with geolocation is a luminous emergency signaling device that will permanently replace the traditional warning triangles as of January 1, 2026, as established by the Spanish Traffic Authority (DGT). Unlike conventional beacons, this device includes a direct connection to DGT 3.0, enabling the real-time transmission of the exact location of a broken-down or crashed vehicle, improving traffic management and reducing risks.

How is the V16 beacon connected to the DGT?

Using an integrated eSIM card, the beacon transmits its location to the DGT 3.0 cloud as soon as it is activated.

Geolocation is achieved via GPS and mobile coverage (NB-IoT or LTE-M).

The system automatically sends an emergency signal that can be viewed by other connected vehicles or compatible applications.
