Anybody got pulled over for F1 brake light?

I just installed a F1 brake light...Has anybody been pulled over because of the blinking brake light?

Just curious.... thanks!

i've gotten pulled over once, but the cop wanted to know if it was a new safety feature since he hadn't seen a new wrx/sti i guess... i stated it was not oem but that its highly recommended due to the "extra" visual safety lol he laughed and said i just hope someone with epilepsy doesn't drive behind you...

Well technically that's supposed to be a rear fog light slot. Not for a brake light 😂

I've answered you on nasioc, but ill post here again. If you plan to do the flasher brake lights, make sure to get a CA legal sequence.

It's ironic because Formula 1 does not have brake lights.

I'm glad you said that because I've been looking into these for safety reasons.
