I hate underglow and the whole LED thing, but I will say cops arguements aren't that good. They say HIDs are a distraction or whatever, but everything could be considered a distraction. COPS are distractions. Do you see how many people freak when they see a cop? And how the watch them until they're gone? They're more distracting than lights I think.
There's a distict difference.
We need cops out on the street. People don't need stupid flashy lights all over their cars. I swear some people are just like bugs and are drawn in by anything bright and flashy lol.
underglow/LEDs are considered illegal for one: being distracting. two: modifying/altering your vechile(no different than exhaust systems being illegal or lowering/raising your car being illegal), and three: for the slight possibilty that someone could misinterpreted blue/red/yellow/orange underglow/LEDs/lights as an emergency/law enforcement vehicle.
I agree that HIDs are annoying. But on the flip side, the RIGHT Kelvin HIDs produce great light output for the driver making visibility better and also less annoying for on-coming traffic. The thing most people fail to do when installing HIDs or light bulbs in general is to aim them. There are laws for proper headlight alignment that you could and should get pulled over for if it is unsafe for on-coming traffic.
