12/16 I see people with really annoying blue lights and white turn signals.
I've also seen motorcycles with annoying flashing brake lights.
They really annoy me. Aren't they illegal, and why don't I ever see
cops pull them over?
\_ laws regarding flashing headlights and taillights on motorcycles
vary from city to city
\_ yes, blue lights are illegal. yes, white turn signals are
illegal.
\_ Are the blue lights the OP sees really blue in color? If it's
really blue in color, maybe it's illegal. But if it's one of
those high intensity white lights that looks blue because it
looks less yellow than the tungsten or halogen lights, I don't
think it's illegal.
\_ Why would they be illegal? They're all about being noticed. For
the motorcycle it's about safety. Who knows why the rice bombs
do it?
\_ because yellow turn signals is universally known and understood.
because blue can really fuck with nighttime vision.
\_ Many common vehicles have red turn signals at the rear. I
hate those (because if the driver also taps on the brake at
the same time it's very confusing), but they're common.
\_ The bulb can be silver and the lens can be clear, but the
light emitted must be yellow. (There are silver bulbs
that emit yellow light when used.) |
