There are several Articles within Division 12 of the California Vehicle Code 
that deal with lighting on vehicles.  In a quick glance, my interpretation 
is that a device that flashes a center mounted red light six times would not 
be legal in the state of California.  I could be wrong.  See Articles 3, 5, 
7, 8, particularly Article 7, starting at 25250, "Flashing Lights".
