I Swear ...

... I'm getting old and intolerant. But this knucklehead in a lifted GMT900 in front of me on Pacific Coast Highway, in heavy stop and go traffic, had painted his tail lights black and I didn't notice his brake lights come on. I just about piled my new truck into his. If I hadda, I'd have made sure the cops came and wrote up the painted tail lights. Yeah, you could see them come on, but not enough so that they caught your attention.

There, I feel better. Now I'm gonna have a cold beer. All views are welcome.

Never really saw the point in tinted tail lights.

I think the same thing when I see any blacked out or tinted lights. They're not safe, no discussion about it.

Yup one of the dumbest things you can do to a vehicle but in there eyes coolness is ranked #1 over being safe for them and others.

I bought a Grand Prix one time that someone had tinted the tail lights on. They were the first thing to come off. Very unsafe.

Would have been his fault for not having legal working tailights. Knew a girl that totaled her car on a trailer with no lights, same thing.

The painted tail lights are so common on cars and trucks driven by the under 30 crowd in Socal, you could make book on a male under 30 in a T-shirt having blacked out tail lights. They all want so hard to be different, they all end up doing the same thing.
