Got pulled over
Well I got pulled over today for having my undercar neons on. I barely ever drive with them.
Well anyways, the cop comes up, gave him license and registration. I had 2 passengers with me at the time, and then another cruiser pulls up. The officers in the other car ask my friends to get out and start asking them foolish questions, they thought my friends were high or something. There was no alcohol or drugs involved, the officers let them off.
Then the officer checked my neons, says they're illegal. All 4 of them. Only yellow and white lights are allowed to be shown from the front of the car.
I told the officer I thought it was only flashing lights are illegal, he agreed, but still backed up his point about blue lights in the front.
Anyways I ended up with nothing, no ticket
First time pulled over.

My first time getting pulled over!
It was on Kennedy and near McNicoll, I turned on to kennedy, looked in my rearview, and see the popo behind. i'm like **** so I quickly turn it off... he follows me for a few seconds then gives me the cherries
I don't even know if the undercar neons are illegal or not! PULOVR need you're feedback please

If blue is not suposed to be shown on the front of the vehilce like the cop said, then why is non-flashing washer jets ok? He just wanted to scare you......and to have a reason to search your car.
I'm telling everyone right now...it's only going to get worse.
If you do get a ticket, be polite, then go home. FIGHT IT IN COURT!!!! The more of us that do that, the longer the wait will be, (backlog of stupid tickets)...the more likely they will start to be thrown out of court, and they will start to get off our backs!

blue is not allowed in the front of the car and the back of the car.
this includes washer lites. however...there is nothing in the HTA about undercar lites. its grey area....a cop could give you a ticket...and i'm not sure if you'd be able to beat it in court....that would depend as well.
just be careful when u turn them on.
considering the blitz on modded cars that just started last thurs...i would recommend not driving with them on for a while...
just draws attention to your car...regardless if they are legal or not...
