The modulated light is received by a light receiving unit of a second vehicle. The received modulated light is demodulated by a decoder for display on a display panel.
DE 10 2010 007 259 A1 discloses a method for transmitting information relating to a defect in at least one part of a motor vehicle. In the method, a defect in at least one part of a second motor vehicle is first of all determined by at least one occupant of a first motor vehicle. A first item of information, which uniquely identifies the second motor vehicle is input and a second item of information, which identifies the defect, is input. A first message is transmitted to a central distribution unit, the first message comprising the first item of information and the second item of information. The first item of information and the second item of information are also processed in the central distribution unit and a second message is transmitted from the central distribution unit to at least one contact address.
