Ask a rescue worker what happens in an accident with tinted window (hint, the safety glass is effectively useless). Loud exhaust is just the immature and insecure looking for attention, at the expense of those who enjoy peace and quiet. And speeding kills people every day. Nothing to worry about here...

Just because a person has a complaint is not immediate cause to invalidate their complaint and label them as whiners as you and others on this thread have done. By calling it 'bitching', you minimize and condescend to the party who has been abused by the ignorance and selfishness of others. Common decency is a dying virtue, entitlement and ignorant behaviour seem to be the new 'virtue'. If you want better and more positive things to focus on, maybe start with being considerate to others.

Now go ahead and post the cry baby face for the sixth time, as though it were the clever and well thought out intellectual response of a mature adult. Or maybe try and start another thread about 'ranting or having a hissy fit', that worked out well for you too. Some never grow up.
Wow you must be in government or just really high.

I drive over 100k a year in my pickup with stock lights with piaa bulbs ( leagle in BC don`t know about ALTA ) and the only time i have a problem seeing is when some DB with HID or LED lights is coming at me. LED light bars should not be sold they are ileagl for any thing but off road.
I'll beg to differ on you 'speed doesn't kill' comment.
This came up when they were introducing the reduced school zone speeds in Edmonton a couple of years ago.
A pedestrian has a 70 percent chance of being hit by a vehicle doing 30km/h. This drops to 20 percent if the vehicle is doing 60km/h.
In some instances, speed most definitely kills.

Default HID conversions pros and cons?

I have HID's for low beam, LED fog lights, LED running lights / turn signals, and a 42" LED light bar. Only my high beams have stock bulbs.

Does that make you one of those DB's that have been mentioned? . One of the ones that doesn't give a sh1t about anyone but himself? Or do you have projector lights? Will be interesting to see what we're dealing with...
