First thing that pops in my mind is that at night it looks out of the ordinary and might make a cop take a second look at u while driving.
As being a retired police office, I would only look at you if it WASN'T lit up.

It does have far and away the brightest license plate light of any vehicle I have owned, and I was a bit surprised when I first saw it too, but I wouldn't say it bothered me.

A thread like this is more interesting to me than all of the others about markups, dealers, order and build status, etc. So keep 'em coming!

Just bend the license plate a bit backward a bit & most of the light will stay on it, or use a magic marker & color the outside of the light to turn it into a spotlight instead of a floodlight.:unsure:

So if you are traveling at the speed of light, would your headlights still shine in front of you?:unsure:

If the light bulb is traveling at the speed of light.. Would the light that bulb is giving off be moving at speed of light x2?

If the truck is traveling (forward) at speed of light, would the (stationary) gentleman at dunkin' donuts see the bulb from the rear?

If a passanger plane is flying at 500mph and some one is running from the back of the plane to the front are they running at 5mph and covering the distance of traveling at 505mph?

Nope! The speed of light is kind of a universal speed limit. So it just still goes forward at the same speed.

A young Mav’rick driver named Breen,
Had the fastest machine on the scene.
He drove fast as light,
And with no cops in sight,
He’d blueshift the red lights to green.
