Pedestrian marking systems, vehicles containing the same, and methods of providing pedestrian marking lighting are disclosed. A system includes a light emitting module having light emitting diodes, a sensor module, and a master controller. The master controller is includes a storage medium with instructions that direct the master controller to receive data from the sensor module, where the data provides an indication of a pedestrian located in the vicinity of the vehicle, determine location coordinates of the pedestrian, determine a direction of light based on the location coordinates such that the light is aimed at the pedestrian, direct the light emitting module to selectively activate the light emitting diodes such that the light emitting diodes produce a collective beam that corresponds to the first direction, determine that the vehicle is turning in a direction towards the pedestrian, and provide a notification to the pedestrian that the vehicle is turning.
