Blue lights

[MsBehave]

Have been wondering for ages what these blue lights are that you usually see on vans or lorries. There are normally two of them and they look like they're attached to the wipers. What are their purpose?

To quote a previous answer for a similar question: "They signify the number of brain cells the owner has"

They serve no purpose other than to break the law. Only emergency vehicles can display any type of blue light on the public highway.

So ...... the ****** that drive about in an ancient (sprayed dayglo orange) nova, emitting an etheral blue "glow" from underneath the "coolmobile" (not) are actually illegal ???

Oops ... I've been censored even though I took care to asterisk some of the letters. Rhymes with bats ..... say no more.

Thanks guys. Pretty much as i thought. I really hate those things, they're way too distracting for other motorists!

Do these answers also apply to the Wayne Kerrs that drive about with their front fog lights on in clear weather?

[MsBehave]

Oh yeah mdoo98, youre right. Thats another weird thing that annoys me. Why is that, do they think it looks cool or something? Maybe they all happen to have a bigger right bum cheak hence the lean....?
