A slow moving vehicle safety device for reducing accidents involving slow moving vehicles includes a housing, which defines an interior space and which is mountable to a rear end of a slow moving vehicle. A power module, a microprocessor, and a receiver are engaged to the housing and are positioned in the interior space. The power module and the receiver are operationally engaged to the microprocessor. The receiver is Global Positioning System enabled and receives coordinates and relays the coordinates to the microprocessor, which calculates a speed of the slow moving vehicle. A plurality of bulbs, which is engaged to a rear facing facet of the housing and is operationally engaged to the microprocessor, can selectively emit light of a variety of colors. The microprocessor is enabled to selectively actuate the bulbs to emit light of a respective color based on an associated speed of the slow moving vehicle.
