You will be the one pulled over and ticketed, even if you aren't actually using it.
I don't know about the second part, but yeah, using it is definitely illegal on the road.
Really depends on the cop, since they can pull you over and/or ticket you for any or no reason. Whether it stands in court is another story, but you gotta take it to court for that to matter. And if they just say it was on when it wasn't, it would be difficult to prove.
Having them installed is legal as far as I know because they're legal for off road use.
Yeah. That's what I meant. As long as you don't use them to blind other drivers. Even if it is just for the lulz.
I got pulled over and the cop didn't give a single shit about the light, even though I blasted him with it (I thought they were a tailgater). I only got a ticket for speeding.
So it really depends. Thankfully (or unfortunately) most cops aren't familiar with the law.
Wow, that's wild! Glad you got off though.
