A wheel position indication system for a vehicle comprising a steerable
wheel, a wheel position indicator and a controller. The wheel position
indicator has an on state and an off state. The wheel position indicator
provides a visual indication of the position of the steerable wheel when
the wheel position indicator is in the on state. The wheel position
indicator does not provide a visual indication of the position of the
steerable wheel when the wheel position indicator is in the off state.
The controller selectively alters the wheel position indicator between
the on state and the off state. The controller places the wheel position
indicator into the on state when the vehicle is in a predetermined
driving condition and places the wheel position indicator into the off
state when the vehicle is not in the predetermined driving condition.
