yea clearlyyy i would never actually use them.. im just wondering if its actually illegal to own and to have in your car in new york?

Naa dont do that, How would you feel if some azz pulled over your sister or mother and scared the F**k out of them. If some idiot pulled me over in a M3 id put him in the trunk and take his ride.

I've seen them on show cars but only in white. Once you go blue and red that’s trouble. Big Trouble. Cops on Long Island hate people pretending to be one of them. Most of them have it in their heads that they're some elite force that’s above everyone even off duty.

Having them is illegal. It is a tool police officers use to identify themselves. If you have it period you're guilty.

White is fine. Just don't get caught using them on a public road.

White is legal, Blue, Red, Green is illegal. If you are a firefighter you can display Blue, if you are EMS(EMT) you can display Green, Red if just for Police. I believe that you can strobe Kit in your head and tail lights for Off Road, and Car show use only!!!

Any one can have Amber. Amber is just caution!!!

In MOST states, its illegal to HAVE any color besides white or amber. If you have strobes in your head or tail lights, they need to be in the amber or clear sections ONLY. Yes many people put them in the red portion and its illegal and they just have not been caught yet. ALSO, you NEED to have a legitimate reason for the. IE, if you have clear and amber strobes or a roof mounted strobe bar or flashing light you need to have a purpose for having them. IE, your plow snow, work construction etc.

Its technically illegal to have any flashing/strobe light for shits and giggles and you can get in trouble for using them even is you are just pulled over by your self, if you do nto have a legitimate reason to use/have them.
