Illlegal AND VERY dangerous...!!!!!!!!!

I have a 2012 Ram and am impressed with how well i see with the factory lights, especially with the lights in the bumper on. I agree with LU229, legal or not its all about respect. In Florida, there is no state vehicle inspection and one obvious reason there should be is headlights. One pointing to the trees, the other across the median, or so high on high beam they're both in the trees. And now, the shade tree HID bulbs in stock headlights. Hope they come down hard on them.

Next project we'll tackle will be the "thug" d'bags that ride around town with the giant subwoofers that rattle the windows in your house when they drive by, and generally disturb the peace in every sense of the word. BTW...you're looked upon as an imbecile when you do this.
I propose a 3 strike rule. First citation is $100, second is $500, third citation your vehicle is impounded and stripped of all stereo equippment.
You just have to laugh when they melt the sockets and part of their headlamps housings. I've seen some go get a second pair of bulbs and wrap duct tape around the distorted holes to keep water out.

My version isnt as nice though... HID = "High Intensity Dumbazz" (sorry, i just had to add that one in with yours Tuna...hehehe)

Lu, mount some aviation lights behind your grille. Next time you come across a stray with HID's blinding you, light'em up!
Should send a settle hint.
As far as the crazy sub-poofers, its rather funny watching the next generstion every year try and reinvent the clarity of plastic and metal rattling in sync as they drive bye.

Yep. I hate them too. My night vision is bad enough without having eye burning lights coming at me to the point where I cannot see the yellow line or the reflectors. This was particularly bad when going through a mountain pass ...hold the wheel steady and wait for the car to pass so I can see again. Just as annoying behind me, but I just move the rear view mirror up, or wave the truck past me.
The worst part is I understand wanting good illumination. But it comes at the peril or others. It's the whole freedom to do one thing vs. the harm of another. I would love to drive 150 mph on my bike, but the risk to others is too great. Same deal.
Some people will never "get it" or care and run super bright lights.

Not bright enough? Seems like I hear that a lot on this forum, but the headlights seem the same as every truck I've ever owned. Just did a 300 mile run out into northern WI in the middle of the night and didn't once think - jeeze, these things are not bright enough.
