Texas Transportation Code, <a href="http://www.capitol.state.tx.us/statutes/docs/TN/content/htm/tn.007.00.000547.00.htm#547.305.00">section 547.305</a>, part b:
"Except as expressly authorized by law, a person may not operate or move equipment or a vehicle, other than a police vehicle, with a lamp or device that displays a red light visible from directly in front of the center of the equipment or vehicle."

edit: as expected, it's <a href="http://www.revisor.leg.state.mn.us/stats/169/55.html">the same in MN</a> ("...lamps or lanterns projecting a white light..."). He can fight it but he won't get very far.

In short, from everything I've seen, non-white/yellow headlights are not street legal, and are marked for off-road use only. If you use them, be prepared to get ticketed for them eventually, since they are so highly visible.



same in ohio, they will even ticket for amber lights on top of cars (sorta sucks if u work security) as i did and the retard cop ticked me for my mini lightbar's strobe mirro reflecting in the sun, he thought i had it on, also see tons of people pulled over for those stupid blue window washer fluid spryers and the stupid led valve stem caps people use, basicy if its blue and or red or even purple, as it looks blue in a blur, DONT USE IT YOU WILL GET A TICKET, EVEN WORSE JAILED FOR IMPERSONATING AN OFFICER IF THE COP IS HAVING A REALY BAD DAY
