Styling Cops &.......... Neons

[AquaSpirit]

I was driving through town the other day, and a maxed up corsa pulled up next to me at the lights, followed a cop car. He seems completely unaware that the car had neons on, he followed him for a bit then turned into the cop station while the corsa rolled on.

I heard that if you cant see the element of the neons you are allowed them, so maybe it is so...

they have been doing a few people round my area for endangering public just in case the explode this is a load of crap cause they are plastic or e-marked.

i always thought the law was not to display blue, red or green cause of the various colours that they mite misrepresent

I've got a tosser with a big helmet on who wonders around my village and takes f*ck all notice when there's a crime or potential crime going on... misrepresenting the police force i think...

red is legal on the rear, coz its the same colour as a rear light, white legal on the front. ive also heard that red or amber along the sides is legal, dunno bout this but lorry's have side markers and i heard that you can use that excuse and get away with it. ****** i think!!

Police have this rule because if everyone had blue and red lights on their cars, the general public wouldn't know when a police car or an ambulance was coming because everycar would have blue flashing lights.

In principle it's a fair law, but it seems that police take it far too far. I mean, LED's around the exhaust don't exactly make you look like your average panda car.

The police will probably use neons/LED's as an opportunity to pull you over to check the rest of the car and give you a producer. So if you have them, make sure you're totally legal - not just things like MOT insurance etc, but also number plate spacing, over-dark windows etc (and hide the eighth you just scored somewhere noone will find it...)

I believe the only colour you are allowed to show on the back is red, clear or orange - and clear or orange on the front.

if you put a 'clear' neon on your car, isnt that basically just putting your average office-style strip light under the car? :I

 

[butcha]

yer it sure is. cops need to understand that a blue/green glow on the road from a cinq/sei DOESNT inpersonate a 3.0l vectra cop car!!!
