Nice work man. Did you make a 555 timer or what did you use?

Looks good man. It would be sick if you had it scrolling in the direction you want to turn (from right to left on the left tail and vice versa)

It might matter after the second or third ticket.

No-no to flashing red lights. It'll certainly attract attention.
