steups...
When people seriously understand that change and sacrifice must go hand in hand then and only then things like this will get my support.
Everybody quick to go on social media and talk support until one man get charge or his vehicle get impounded, then motorcade comes to an abrupt end...

Lol, I'm often amused at how ambiguous laws are in this country. We're not dealing with contraband items so why are 'modifications' are illegal in mainland Trinidad but not on the Ports? Rims, lift kits, etc. all pass through Customs.
It's unlikely that every modification to have ever come into the country came hidden in a suitcase, unbeknownst to the ever vigilant Customs Officers, so to me, if something is contraband, it should be seized on the Ports immediately (like the drugs, camouflage items or the box of KFC your partner begging for since last year, etc.).
Instead, the State happily collects its 30% duty on car parts, lets it go through and then one Gov't agency enforces archaic laws that render the items that another Gov't agency allowed to enter the country, illegal.

Could be used for track use/off road use and not on public road
I have seen items being sold, which state "not for street use" already.

HOW DARE YOU BRING SENSE INTO THIS
Yup that's correct. I was stopped in a road block and ticketed some years ago for white led park light bulbs. Leant my lesson and changed them back to the stock bulbs. Back then the charge was 150. Now might be a 1000.cslik7545 wrote:I was told my white LED park light (yes park light on a ck2) is non regulation and I can be ticketed but I would let u go with a warning. Next time u get a ticket.

Some companies say that to avoid having to test or certify their products for on road use. Cause getting certified is expensiveDave wrote:As SR said, any good reputable aftermarket manufacturer would always state for off road use only.

Lol. Everything falls under that category ent..?? Because rims, which are considered 'modifications' are 'not for street use'..ent? Every single modification brought into the country, that Licensing Officers are frowning upon are not intended for street use. Great. Thanks for clearing that up.
