Bicycle Led's

[hallj1]

Is it legal to show flashing LED's forwards (white) as I saw one the other day and it really stood at a distance.

They've been legal since 2005:

Does this apply to motorcycles too as the only difference is an engine (hence the word motorcycle)?

No, they're covered by this:

Unless it's a club rider they're not likely to be doing much over 15 mph.

Yeah well it is probably legal in definte areas and illegal at crowded areas in the awarness of accidents. These accidents must be controlled well but cannot be stop using LED's forward. Media URL: http://www.lawserver.com/law/state/rhode-island/ri-laws/rhode_island_general_laws_31-24-31
