Dan,

A similar thing happened to me on RT 84 in CT a couple years ago.  Cop
with out light at all coming up behind me in My coupe.  He wrote me up
for 85.  I considered going to court to point out the unsafe practice of
driving without head lights but figured I was already into the state for
almost $300 and did not want to risk having to pay court cost on top. 
All and all no head lights at night are a sleezy and unsafe practice.
