Or, maybe, the last time you were courteous and cut the lights to signal someone that they missed you, when you turned them back on is when the light blew? Wait!! courteous? What have I been smoking? LMAO
Is a headlight out a ticket or an out of service violation?

I'm going to purposely drive around with a bad headlight just to raise your blood pressure. Need you be so I'll minded towards those who drive around with a bad headlight without their knowledge. It could be a woman..and she might have to call a man to help her identify her problem, maybe the man's asleep...who knows?! Can't judge everybody, sir!

By the way whenever I seeTruckers do that it's almost never a woman and always a man who probably doesn't speak any English

I got tired of having a woman tell me what to do and where to go, so I changed the voice setting on my GPS to a man's voice.
I was astonished to find out he's just as stupid as she was.Highway Sailor Thanks this.
