this is coming from a police officer on anothher website - red lights at the back as long as they dont reflect off the road, white on the front as long as they dont reflect off the road, sides are not allowed

the actuall law is they are allowed on the high way as long as the bulb isnt visable if you can only see the glow on the floor and not the actually strip of light then it is legal ....ow the only colour that isnt is blue as you would be arrested for impersonating a police officer!
sorry to sound like a no it all !

Dooey111,
Firstly not all neons make cars look stupid, its people that go overboard with them make the cars look stupid.
And to answer ur second post, your not lighting up the road - that is the street lights job, the neons serve a purpose to make the car look like a show car, and make it stand out from boring dull ones that just go on, sorry to sound mean there - my car doesnt have neons BUT given the choice i would have a neon foot panel light, a neon gear stick for inside the car, for me to look at, not other people.

Wrong! i'm a dibble sergeant... It is a specific offence to show other than a red light to the rear, or amber to the side. The VL regs makes no distiction between the source being visible or not...the key word is "light". However, there is a hole in con & use regs so there is no such caveat for the front lights. Provided your headlights, sidelights etc are the corect hue, any aditional forward facing lights (such as the ghay blue washer jet lights) are not specifically covered. That said, if the light is blue and is capable of flashing (either automatically, or by being switched repeatedly on/off) then you run the risk of impersonating dibble "by word or deed". And finally, it looks chuffing stupid, so don't do it.
