RE: Cruisin Lights

["Brant M. Miller" <brant@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jeff -

In addition to Brian's response, a reason that driving on parking lights
(and fog lights, I believe) was made illegal in California is that people=

use light brightness as a gauge of distance to an approaching vehicle -
especially in twilight.  People driving on parking lights were finding
themselves in too many accidents - especially the type that result from
left turns across traffic.  Since said people also involved others in sai=
d
accidents, the state stepped in.

I suspect your particular problem has a bit to do with the breadth of the=

law.

Subject: Why Are Cruisin Lights Illegal?!?!?!?!

This question pertains to California laws but I believe most, if not all
other
states don't allow the use of "Cruisin Lights".

Cruisin Lights are little tinny bulbs that you usually drill stick in you=
r
headlights so they light them up with a color (green, blue, purple, etc).=
