Title: Looking at Helmet Lights!
Post by: PapaSoldTheHarley on September 13, 2015, 06:18:48 PM: Looking at the helmet lights that are available (Lumenflex.com and others).
Any Florida riders have any experience with the legality?
I like the lights, and might put some (at least on my nighttime helmet); as long as I am not attracting a ticket or worse...

I know there are color restrictions and aiming restrictions in Florida for lights on the bike. I haven't found a source as to whether or not there are restrictions on helmet lights (Colors, brightness, direction of illumination)...

Helmet is the highest point visually; a light there would be seen more easily (I think)...

And I have had no problem with police. I believe they like it, because we can be seen. I just scotched taped EL wire to the helmet, and used the 10lbs scotch fasteners to attach the battery pack to the helmet. It was cheap on ebay. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2oYt0GUI-A.
