I was talking with my friend bout personal experiances driving at night and coming up against people who decide its nice to ride your ass and flash high beams, especially those wonderfully talented SUV lovers. So i thought bout putting in 2 lamps in back window that were very bright like stronger then hallogen. I dont really know whats the best. and have them pointed out the back to return the flashing favor....some sorta switch upfront obviously, any comments? or least constructive feedback? anyone know if its legal/illegal in CT/MA area?

Hah, my dad has a floodlight in his car. 750 billion mili candle or whatever. It's fucking BRIGHT! It actually made me unable to see for about 6 seconds after shined in my eyes at 10 feet. Just grab one of those babies. He does it all the time, just don't do it to one of those cops who ride your ass late night because they think you are drunk.

Legal? think about it, as much as i agree with you about tailgaters, even the ones that have to run faster than you are wehn you are aready over the speed limit, as much as those types pis us all off, how would ya feel after hitting someone in the eyes with a bright light, temporary blinding them, causing them to crash and possibly die, just because of following close with high headlights.
I curse these Aholes as much as anyone else, but i dont want them to die, I wouldnt think you would either. Not to mention "if" that happened, what do you think might happen to you if the car following you both see's what went on and decides you are the Ahole that caused the crash and decides to stop and tell the police at the scene, possibly with your tag number,what you did? i dont quite think its worth it, do you?
And remember, so many people are so dummed up these days, driving SUV's, that have no clue (since its a brand new truck!) that the factory lights are a set so high, most all those new huge composite headlights do nothing but blind you, and the tall suv just makes it worse. There have been a lot of gripes and articles over this in the past against auto makers.
I agree with you in as far as something needs done with these type lights, but not such drastic action as what you want to do. I drive 100 miles a day, i am not, repeat NOT blinded by and TRACTOR TRAILOR (this for people in new suv"s) so if large trucks arent blinding us, assume its your new suv, and as far as i know, they all still have headlight adjustments on them, so duh! adjust those damn lights a little!!

Run a hose from your washer bottle to the back of your car and install a nozzle. Safe and funny

or you could get a sign that lights up and says "Get The Fuck Off My Ass"

Not only is that illegal but its unsafe. Do you know how much possible damage it can cause? I live in MA and you could get possibly arrested for lights that big. I would suggest the scare tactic. Due to the fact that most drivers see strobe lights and get shitty-pants do this. Go and buy two 2 Strobe lightbars like the cops have in there rear windows. Use white lenses. Flash them 2 or 3 times quickly they'll think your an undercover cop. LOL Trust me it works I had them in my moms volvo and my old cavalier with tinted windows. The reason why it works is cuz state police have a thousand differnt cars. MA has 2 mustang GT's. One is a yellow conv. and one is black. They also have a BMW M3. lol.

Wow, I would love to be a cop if I could drive a M3 all day, but I would rather drive anything other than a stupid Mustang.

The cops around here have 2002 Camaros- 2 of em at least. I am not sure if they are SS or Z28 or not. Who knows. Then we have acouple motor cycles and then the rest are in some **** ford. I dont even know what kind. A Victorian or whatever perhaps if thats the name of them? Who knows. I just know its not a good ford model... if there is one.

When people ride my ass and I'm in a bad mood...I just slow down. I keep slowing down till they either back off or they try to pass then I floor it. That aggrivates the hell out of them. If you want a new car...try slamming the brakes and let them rear end you.

Be careful with the strobes...if someone were smart enough to get your tag and call you in...you're in deep shit impersonating a cop.

Also using a light to blind people is just stupid. You'll either scare the hell out of them or cause them to crash...hell maybe even both.

I've been pulled over by a Mustang GT in Georgia a long time ago because someone else broke the law. The bastard just wanted me because there were three teens in the car and I was from out of state. Gotta love cops when they get bored :dupe: :flipa:

A town i live near has A 2002 Camaro SS. Black with blacked out windows, exhaust, supercharger. I know this cuz my buddy has a turbo celica and he raced him. We go around a U-turn and he pulls us over. GOD DAMNIT. After 45 Mins of him yellin at my friend he takes away his license and makes me find a ride home. :mad: :lol2:

You should get in trouble for "impersonating an officer" if the strobes are WHITE, i know the illegal colors in AZ are, red, blue, and orange. I dont see a problem with white, after all, its not like your flashing cop color lights and speeding around.

Its only impersonating if you have the police colors. Either blue or red. You can use white and amber they are perfectly legal.

EXACTLY...whenever someone gets within 2 car lengths i slow the hell down, and then they give a look like I'm a retard or something when they pass me...but I only have people on my ass when I'm in the slow lane! and it's usually that lane that the dumb bastards get on peoples asses, as if they dont know the slow lane from the fast lane! :rolleyes:

people sometimes I tell ya

Not if you pull someone over with them. Trust me...If you use them for the wrong reasons you will get in trouble for them. Also they are illegal to use on the road...so one way or another you will catch hell for them.

Speaking of slow lanes...I get annoyed at the people that think the left lane is the slow lane. That and the people that get in the slow lane after they make you go around them.

Mmk. Next time you see a cop at night drive up behind him and throw on some white strobes. Let us know what happens.

Anyway, its a good idea, but at the same time a horrible one. Blinding people while driving would be insane. I agree with the windshield washer line to the rear of the car suggestion.

I never said to pull people over LOL. I just said flash them quickly. And no they aint illegal to use on the road. When i did land surveying we used them all the time. One time were were on I-495 Northbound and people were going in the breakdown lane due to traffic. Well its illegal on that highway. So my crew chief went in there and put on his lights. He had yellow and white. Cop saw us and asked if we needed help. LOL. He didnt think we were cops but said it was cool that we did that. About a mile up the road someone broke down. Now if we didnt do that who knows what would have happened.

Why the hell does everyone think im sayin keep the lights on or act as if your a cop? Its a quick flash. Just like when you hit the breaks or slow down its just to get peeps off your ass.

Well duh...if you are using them for your job then ok...but just to blind people or whatever you want to do it isn't going to fly. If you don't believe me put them in and start flashing people with them...I'll give you a few weeks before you get a ticket.

Read the package...I guarantee you that the strobe's package will say "FOR OFF ROAD USE ONLY"

I know that it says that. But again they are only illegal if you use them illegally. Its like when you flash your high-beams for people to move (Most aggravating thing in the world) It gets them off your ass.

Alright well I'm threw arguing with you...I'll let you find out the hard way.

Hey, i wanted to ask advice first, yea i guess it would temporary blind them especially if i was gonna use the surpemely bright ones. I might try the strob idea, thanks for the feedback. I just wanted to get some adult advice. my friend was about to jump gun and start setting it up for me.
