Now, if you forget to lower you high beams, you get pulled over. What if you have those fancy new blue lights that are really bright? Do we get pulled over for them? What about foglights? Every idiot drives around with those on whether it's foggy or not. Do you get pulled over for having those on? Local cops are losers that couldn't get into the PSP, so now they're security guards with weapons.
