There is a rule that lights should not be attached to a movable body part. That`s why some cars have another row of lights in the trunk lid that come on when the trunk is opened. Decorative lighting is defined as any light that is not on the standard table for use in vehicles and is prohibited, including neon lights. Examples of neon lighting include illuminated undercarriage neon lights and valve stem caps, windshield washer openings and license plate covers. Pennsylvania law prohibits lights on vehicles that are not required or permitted by law. The Vehicles Act, Chapter 153, lists the types of lighting permitted and required for different categories of vehicles in terms of lamps, reflective devices and related equipment that do not allow neon lighting in any part. I wouldn`t adjust them – tire valves aren`t built to take a force on them, and these lights will exert reasonable force on the valve stem, which could cause them to fail. Which wouldn`t be fun at 70 mph. So these are known as side marker lights (if you use lights) or retroreflectors (if you use reflective material) that attach them to the wheel or something, not the valves. Pennsylvania law deals with neon lights in two ways: with respect to neon lights on vehicles and with respect to real estate installations. Red, blue and green are likely to be classified as illegal.

I can`t comment on legality, but I have blue lights on my wheels in the same position as the reflectors. I have two on each wheel, they`re stable, don`t blink, and when I ride, they make my bike look like a blue disc (think Tron). I walked past the police several times without any problem, not that it necessarily counts as anything. People comment on moving lights, but there are reflectors in the same position on most bikes, and yes, I know reflectors aren`t lights, but they still come on when they reflect a car`s headlights. Anyway, my reasoning is that they make me more visible, especially for cars that go off back roads, and have definitely saved my skin on more than one occasion. I also have pretty bright white (front) and red (rear) lights. When I think about the number of SMIDY drivers, I will keep using them until I am told not to. Any proper reflective material is probably legal, so if you want a rainbow reflective material on the bike, go for it. Well, I implied, the rules say that no emergency color should be visible, no color that could distract other road users, but that doesn`t mean it`s illegal to use other colors, so in theory, purple, pink, etc.

is fine… This is not the case, but it is a gray area, I even passed in front of the same copper twice in 5 minutes with subscription and nothing happened while the blue was displayed! He probably didn`t care, but tbh id just like white lights because they look cleaner and won`t really be a big distraction for others, but others will notice you. myhomeshoppe.com/products/waterproof-led-wheel-lights?variant=31859686866980 Hi everyone, I looked at those LED lights that are screwed into the tire valve as an extra safety measure for the motorcycle at night, but then I wondered if they would be legal or not on the road. They do not flash and emit a constant blue, green, red or yellow light, depending on the color purchased. I`ve tried to Google the answer, but I can only find articles that talk about underlit neon lights or flashing lights. Any ideas? I suspect amber (or red on the back) may be legal if mounted around the wheel (but can`t be swiveled, so not to the wheel), but I can`t bother looking specifically for this case. No, they are not, because it must be a fixed position. The Pennsylvania Code defines certain real estate-related items as movable or permanent parts of real property or tangible personal property that is not intended to become permanent parts of real property. It is believed that neon signs will not become a permanent part of real estate, there is no satisfactory evidence to the contrary in Pennsylvania. If you put orange of them, I guess you could say they are beacons, but there are rules for frequency beacons with which they flash or rotate.
