A visual front alert system attached to an inside surface of a vehicle windshield for instructing observers as to movement of the vehicle. A strip shaped body includes outer layers of a silicone material which incorporates flex PCB containing a plurality of illuminating elements. A clear adhesive is applied over the front silicone layer for securing the strip display bodies to surface locations of the windshield. An accelerometer is connected to the PCB, with a power supply operating the accelerometer and PCBA. In response to a determined acceleration of the structure, the accelerometer inputs a signal to the PCB, representative of the vehicle movement, with the PCB in turn providing an output signal causing the illuminating elements to generate a visual output corresponding to said input signal. The visual output further includes a first output representative of a steady or accelerating motion of the vehicle and a second output further representative of a decelerating or braking condition of the vehicle.
