Default Rear Lighting in the Bumper ?'s

I dont go out crusing in my truck that often, however when i do all the rice rockets decide its a great time to flash their brights and fog lights in my rearview mirror. Is there any legal issues with using this bumper http://www.buckstop.biz/rear.html with some bright piaa lights to blind the a$$holes back?

yes, it is against the law to have backup lights/spot lights turned on while driving down the road.

i have a KC light bar on my truck...i have 4 100watt 6 inch KCs facing forward, and 2 4x6 55watt shining rearward for that purpose, not to drive with them on of course, but just as a reminder that tailgating and bright lights arent a good thing..you could just lift your truck and not worry about their headlights

I'm gonna put some in mine for the same reason, just don't flash them when a cop is around. And hide your switch, so cops think the lights are only attached to your reverse switch.

You know I have not had this problem yet. But I tell you what, I love my truck to include the tow package and if some ignorant little crapper does that to me I have no fear (so long as the wife and kid aren't with me) to show 'em how great my breaks work. I beleive even if they don't hit me they may think twice before doing it again to some one else or to me in the future. haha
