I know what DOT is. What asked "What is DOT approved" I meant Which light is DOT Approved? Minnesota doesnt give out fix it tickets. they are just Tickets... Expensive ones.So when I did one of my ride a longs and the cop gave a girl a fix it ticket for her tail light...what was it? It wasn't from the same ticket book that he gave other violators tickets...

He had to go back once the tint was removed and have an officer take a look.

Joel, check out this section. 169.55 requires that your headlights project a white light. Now the argument is what one considers to be white light.Welp, that certainly makes the argument a lot tougher. I know as of about 5 years ago ND didn't have anything that specific in there laws for lighting like that. CMK is right, now it is all in what is perceived as "White light" by the judge...... hopefully you get a judge like i did. Good luck

Had to fix it and go back and have it looked over to see if it was acceptable according to them.

I had the same thing happen to me about 2 years ago, went to court fought it and beat the ticket. Joel I think your best bet is to argue that the law is too vague and does not clearly state which lights are legal or illegal. Good luck man hope it works out for ya.

Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car
Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall
Torque is how far you take the wall with you -
