Adaptive Brake lights

So apparently the rear fog lights light up and the lights flash when braking hard. Just curious to see how it looks like on an F30. Does anyone have a video?

On US cars by default, the rear fogs light up on heavy braking. They do not blink.

To get the blinking brake lights on heavy braking, you have to enable it via coding.

Yep me too. Frogman was nice enough to video my car with his iPhone. Came out pretty decent.
