Hella lighting (4kq) -- cops search?

I run 80w driving lamps (your main driving lights) and 100w high 
beams.  Hella.  Never the first hint of police activity, questioning, or 
suspicion.  But then, I am a considerate driver.

TIP:  If by some happenstance the cops question you about your lighting 
wattage, (fat chance, I say) then you are like Sgt. Schultz -- you know 
NOTHING.   Remain silent.  And never *consent* to a search of your 
vehicle.  In traffic court, demand a jury trial, or consult an attorney.  I 
would like to see the D.A. who took the time to dredge up the obscure laws 
and regs that it would take to prove this kind of violation.  Even then, 
you still do not give up your traditional defenses to crimes, such as 
mistake, justification, necessity.  Our brethren can use their collective 
imagination to provide other useful advice no doubt.

This is not intended to be legal advice, but merely commentary on a point 
of interest.
