Turn off your park lamps on your car and go for a drive or let a friend turn theirs OFF and go take a drive from GB to Sando behind them.

Stay the legal 17m off or so... Then you will understand why its somewhere in the Highway code..

Street lights are not there to help you see cars .. Just the road...

If you never seen a car appear and dissapear in front your eyes.. Dont pray to be casually goin 80 to 100 and bounce up a car with NO parklights at the back.. You have mere seconds to react....

Its NOT a nice feeling .. trust me.

[MrD15Bvti]

Fail to comply with officer......$1000


thats is the main problem there where ppl can be victimized

[NLVA200]

these laws are always so vague and all are subject to the officer's own interpretation of them.

words such as dangerous, excessive, noisy, improper and unreasonable are simply imprecise.

[Chimera]

sigh, bess to walk with $500 bribe money whenever you driving.

Anytime a popo stop you, hit them the "officer is there anyway I can speed this up? time is money and i`m sure you can put a value on your time"

[Mr. Red Sleeper]

all of this doesnt count.

first of all you didn't state the time of day/ driving conditions.

i'd like to believe when visibility decreases you would turn on your headlights

what i'm getting @ is, if there is a distinction between tail lights and park lights ? (yunno the corner lamps for cars that have them or those lil bulbs in the headlamp section)

and if such a distinction exists what does this law apply to ?

If my car has no corner lights (like d b-14 dem) can an officer stop me in a road block at night, ask me to turn of my headlights to insure my park lights are functioning ?

afaik there is a difference between parklights and tail lights (while yes i know the same switch activates both)

$1000 for a blown park light is a bit fcuking retarded don't you think ?

BUT $1000 for no /faulty tail lights i fully agree with

whe wagonrunner ? ah need some calificationz

[kiamotors]

Yes and police have a habit of insulting, yelling and getting in people personal space when they are "doing there job". I have seen it one too many times and it is very disturbing...

actually you should check your lights, fluids, tire pressure etc before you drive you drive your vehicle, its just that... not much ppl do it

@ night when i reverse into the garage i can see if any of the tail lights/ brake lights are blown, also it would help if you have friends/family that won't take it for granted and tell you nothing if they aren't working

but even after checking... it can still blow during a drive....

that said i think i've answered me own question or should i say looked @ it from a different perspective... what if a headlight blows during my drive ?

for those with corner lights it would still illuminate so on coming traffic would still know the width of the vehicle... i believe the same applies for those with their park lights inside the headlamp....

but even still, in such a scenario, would i be spared a ridiculous fine ?

btw i had to edit yuh name boi rossi
