dude Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 Originally posted by toyotasuprauk So when they say on the box of car bulbs its illegal to drive a car with a malfunctioning bulb at any time day or night is it a lie to sell more bulbs! No , if the headlights are fitted they have to work , Unless they are permanently disconnected !!!! Dude:flame Dev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitesupraboy2 Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 Nope if it is on the veichle it must operate correctly For instance motorbikes dont have to have indicators,but if are on the motorbike all must work correctly and for that instance cars dont have to have them either if produced before a certain date Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 as others have said : you don't actually need to have lights BUT legally if you have them they have to work. But also you can't just remove the lights and use the vehicle on the public road, you have to also remove all wiring and switches etc. I know this for a fact because I was nicked once for riding an RD350LC with a full race fairing (ie no headlight) on the road in daylight hours. Apparently, the fact that the wiring for the lights was still intact meant that I was breaking the law. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
