Last night me and the kids went to see a mate in East Kilbride, just after we came up the slip road coming home I went to overtake an old biddy in his cruddy old Honda. Once I passed him I saw 2 little lights in front of me (this was about 15m away) and had to slam on the brakes as he was going so slow and I couldn't get back in. It was a bloody black Sport with smoked rear lights, are these illegal, or are his lights on the way out, as I quite like them (on black cars) but not so keen any more

i'm sure they are illegal due to the fact that they dont produce enough light ... ... - .- -.

Never had any issues with the 1's on mine

spoke to my son who is a mot tester and he says its down to the mot testers discretion and there must be enough light coming through the smoked lens.. ... - .- -.

some of the black 'lights' on chav cars are dreadful - even at night you only get a very faint glow - in daylight brake lights are not visible at all

Mine has past to MOT's without any issue. 1st 1 was even done at the dealers
