Traders using 'pimp' lights

[lw'nafh]

Those running lights are there to increase visability, to avoid unneccisary collisions in space. You'll notice that aeroplanes and semi-trucks have running lights so that they're visable during the night. You might not think it, but it can get pretty dark in space sometimes. A lot darker than what Freelancer depicts.

Deep space, for sure, but we don't fly in deep space. And really, /really/, the few people that would be are ones that /don't/ want to be seen in the first place.

EDIT: Oh yeah, not to mention, like, sensors.
