I'm sure all of you have seen those big-rigs that cruise around all night long with orange lights every half inch on the front and sides, and red lights every half inch on the back end.

Now according to NY State law, I beleive that it states that only orange and white light can be emitted from the front of the vehicle and red light from the back.

Now because of that, theoretically, shouldn't one be able to use orange underglow on the front and sides, and red in the back, legally?

I don't see why not.

 

its illegal ecause its not being emtted by the front or back, its being emitted from the bottom

 

Thats a good try Hack, +rep. Not sure what would happen really.

 

Can anyone else prove or disprove this?

 

Ask Judge Judy.




Never mind she said NO.

 

 

Here in TN, red, blue, and orange are emergency colors and none of them can shine. I don't know how that applies to the back though...

 

Orange can't be an emergency color... what about your park lights and turn signals?

Personally I've seen people cruising around here with red, green, white, and purple neons on... the cops don't seem to care. Blue, on the other hand, will cause an issue.

 

you can legally have white, or amber in NY

 

I actually talked to a local cop here in WI and he told me that you could have white all around except in the back. he said that would have to be red. But he said it wasnt a guarentee that i wouldnt get hasseled

I dont see how white all around would cause an issue though

 

So we couldnt put red in the back?

I'd like to do amber around the sides and red in the back.

It'd be a neat loophole if I could do it legally

 

put your self in a hardass cop mindset for a sec

pretend your rollin around in your cruiser.

You see your typical 18 wheeler roll down the road.
plenty of amber/red lighting like every other truck


then you see a kid with a tuned sounding exhaust.....wing....tinted.....audio blarin....and he has amber and red underglow.....



you see where im goin with this?

 

why...

Do you enjoy being a cop magnet and look like a stereotypical ricer?

If you want to do it, its your car and your money, do what you want. but If that were my thing I would put whatever color I think would look good on, turn them off while on the road and turn them on while in a parking lot or sonic hanging out with people , showing off the car.

But this is coming from someone that has always been a fan of the sleeper cars.

 

haha, i don't need a sleeper.

A car has to be fast to be a sleeper. lol

 

i drive truck,those lights you refer to,is to stop honda drivers from driving their cars underneath us.LOL

 

I thought the spare tire was there for that reason, haha

 

Whatever happened to that CRX project car that was gonna be so awesome?

 

Some kid i know was a ****** retard and got it towed.

The company that towed it denied ever seeing the car, yet i hear rumors about my parts showing up in their store
