1. A light system comprising:
a plurality of light sources configured to be located on a vehicle and one or more of the plurality of light sources configured to generate light that is projected outboard of a width of a vehicle;
one or more reflectors that are angled in a first direction relative to the plurality of light sources; and
one or more static bending light reflectors that are angled in a second direction relative to the plurality of light sources and the one or more reflectors so that light from the one or more static bending light reflectors are projected outboard of the width of the vehicle, with the one or more reflectors being between the one or more static bending light reflectors and the outboard of the vehicle, with the one or more reflectors having a longitudinal axis and a primary lens extending at an angle of about 5 degrees or more to about 30 degrees or less relative to the longitudinal axis and the light from the one or more static bending light reflectors and the one or more reflectors directly enters the primary lens.
