Allow me to show you something I was stopped behind in downtown Nashville last week…
How the fuck is putting everyone in undue danger legal? You’re free to put other people in harms way.
Even if this were illegal (and it may or may not be), it would only be a problem for the driver if cops chose to enforce whatever the relevant regulation was. If a cop pulled this abomination over, it would only be to admire it.
Fun fact: cops in the US are not required to actually know the laws they're enforcing.
It is stupid, but I get it....I like dumb shit too. The lights show off the suspension and whatnot, but to have them on WHILE DRIVING‽ What a prick.
Might not be the same person, but im in murfreesboro and this truck with the same tail lights and lights in general stops at the store i work over nights at every few weeks. He comes at like 3 am and takes a bunch of photos of his jacked up truck. Ive seen him do this like 6 times in the past 5 months. Idk why he does this, but its always kinda weird.
I’d imagine it is the same guy. I’ve seen the truck downtown at least twice so I don’t think they’re a tourist.
