We discuss the extension of special relativity to noninertial reference frames. It is commonly believed that special relativity can only be applied to inertial systems of reference and that noninertial systems should be approached with general relativity. We explain that this is a common misconception. The local application of Lorentz transformations to noninertial frames is essential for extending special relativity and relativistic gravitation theory.
