Well, most of you all know I have an 2005 STi. Well, I was driving alone tonight and all of a sudden the night was lighted up by blue berries and cherries. I check my speed, and I am fine. So, I am like "what wrong officer?"

He proceeds to tell me that my headlights are illegal in the State of Nevada. So, I tell him that they are factory installed lights and that they are 50 state D.O.T. approved.

Anyway, he wrote down the N.R.S. code that makes them illegal.

Here is it.

NRS 484.575 Lamps and reflectors on other vehicles. All vehicles including animal-drawn vehicles not otherwise specifically required to be equipped with lamps, shall at all times specified in NRS 484.545 be equipped with at least one lamp displaying a white light visible from a distance of not less than 500 feet to the front of the vehicle and two lamps displaying a red light visible from a distance of not less than 500 feet to the rear of the vehicle or one lamp displaying a red light visible from a distance of not less than 500 feet to the rear and two red reflectors visible from all distances of 600 to 100 feet to the rear when illuminated by the lawful lower beams of head lamps.

[Part 6:166:1925; A 1939, 316; 1945, 268; 1955, 40]—(NRS A 1969, 1215; 1975, 31)
