Question:
I have a 20" red led tube in my rear window, a red led under body kit (which I know you can't have on going down the road) and I have muffler tips that have red led's in them, I was wondering if I was going to get a ticket for this? It was my understanding that white and amber lights were allowed in the front and on the side and red was allowed in the back, but my husband says otherwise. I cannot find a place online that has the laws laid out for missouri (or any other state for that matter). I really thought that the led tube and the tips would be legal. Thanks in advance.
Answers:
The headlights are illegal if over the factory wattage, but if they are factory wattages for high and low beams, then they should also be OK. The wattage should be stamped on the base of the bulb (the plastic portion), especially if it is over the normal ratings. To find the normal ratings, find what kind of bulb you have (like a 9004) and do a search for it on the internet. Most factory bulbs are 60 watts for high beam, and 55 for low beams, though some are different.
What is the proper way to pull over on a highway?
The headlights aren't as likely to get you pulled over and ticketed unless they're so bright that people regularly think you're bright lighting them as they come at you.
