| I can see why they could be mistaken for police lights...and honestly, they're a bit naff don't you think? Get 'em off I say! No good can come of this! :kz: EDIT: Just read that they are illegal on this forum (http://www.pitbikeclub.co.uk/showthread.php?t=50076). You will get pulled. | 2011-05-17 22:40:00 Author: Mr_T-Shirt  Posts: 1477 |
| You'd likely get stopped and told to replace them with amber indicators within a certain timeframe. Unless you were otherwise being naughty I doubt you'd get fined, though. I'm kinda curious to know if it would pass an MOT with blue indicators. | 2011-05-17 22:42:00 Author: Ayneh  Posts: 2454 |

| We can't actually answer this. Consult a competent legal professional in your jurisdiction. | 2011-05-17 22:52:00 Author: roux-  Posts: 379 |
