Light the Tire

to send a signal for help.
Alternative definition- to give up.

This is a term created in recognition of the fact that often people are trapped in the woods and they die because no one ever finds them. Like idiots they simply sit in their car. Rather they should take a tire off their car and light it on fire (using gas from the tank and the car lighter). The plume of black smoke would be seen for 50 miles.
Dude, Light the Tire, that chick wants nothing to do with you.

lightbar

An enclosed array of lights mounted on top of emergency vehicles for the purpose of either moving traffic out of the way or alerting the public to the presence of an emergency.

Lightbars can come in different types. The most common consists of rotating spherical mirrors around a light to cause quite a light display. Sometimes these rotators are spread out such as in a V-shape, a vector lightbar, most notably used by the NYPD. Recently LED lightbars emerged into emergency lighting due to their more efficient energy usage.
The cop turned on the lightbar and blasted the streets with the siren.

black light burns

Kill a few,
kill a dozen
Kill the night eyes kin
Well he's rappin on the pane of the window again
He's got a blade for a tongue
and snakes for eyes
and his hands on the handles of a hundred knives
And if they don't fall down
you can watch them run
with two bullets in your pocket
and a rusty gun
We're goin' three by three to the mountain top
to throw that son of a bitch
right off the highest drop
