I can only assume the cops find a bigger problem inside the car. :/

which i might add... was most likely the cause of intersect in the first place!

The local police pulled me over late last year when I had blue LED parkers and number plate lights. They told me to remove them and if I was caught with them again I'd be fined. Needless to say I removed them and haven't had any problems since.

LED versions are available, they are the same globes as the park light globes in some cars, such as older subaru's and the 'sealed-beam' conversion lights used in oldercars too..

i got a yellow sticker for having red park lights and dark tint (20%).. cost about $100 bucks in getting the sticker and the tint off.. s**t.. the guy that checks over my car said if your driving down a two way street with the red lights on that if someone is coming towards you they might be (retarded) enough to think its the back of a car and think its a dual carrage way and pull into the lane.. he said if i drive off with them in he'd report me to the cops... what a d***head who'd drive in the middle of the night with only there parks on........

makes sense.... but i don't really think that you'd see red parking lights if your low beams are on.....

why not put one red and one blue in???? :shock:
