OK...You CAN and SHOULD get ticketed for clear taillights/lenses.  THEY ARE 
DANGEROUS.  I'm not saying they all don't look good, a few do, but that is 
not reason to put other drivers' safety at risk.  It's arrogant to do that 
just for the purpose of vehicle cosmetics.
I own a radio station that's 1/2 mile from Teterboro airport in NJ.  There's 
a 2000 foot antenna tower built on my property.  It's got this red light on 
top that blinks so that aircraft don't crash into it.  But, I think it looks 
better without it, so I'm gonna put a black-out cover on it.  Either that, or 
I'm gonna change it to a different color, even though it's much harder to 
see. The Federal Aircraft Commission says I can't do it because it's a safety 
hazard.  But it LOOKS BETTER, so what's the big deal???
