Warning Will Robinson

OK this probably falls under the "looking for an excuse to ticket" catagory but a Florida company makes their fortune by driving trucks with big LED displays on 4 sides of the "box" on the back. The displays carry moving advertisements

According to the paper, the police have started ticketing the trucks for illegally showing red and blue flashing lites.....

So don't go red or blue...or keep 'em steady burning

Yeah, for sure we can't use the red lights on the hood while we're on a highway. As cool as it would be to have them for 'entertainment purposes' it's a definite violation of most states' laws. Darn

A buddy of mine is a electric whiz (he and friends have built their own submarine, in Denmark) and he wants to make me one of these. That can change color, so I can do white on the road, and red or blue when not in motion. We'll see.
