Nothing says “official” like a blinking light

Mrs Frog has one on her golf cart.  Flashes 38 different patterns of yellow and white light.   She doesn't want to get run over when shes out scoping deer in the neighborhood.  

I have used it sometimes at night on the roof of the Outlaw Bug.   Lately i have thought i might need it on the roof of the GR86 when I go into the city of jacked-up trucks.

We once had an issue and had to back out a trailer onto a fairly busy road.  I put on a hard hat and yellow safety vest, setup two cones and directed traffic so we could back out safely.  All while holding my beer.

The reason it looks official is because it identifies a service vehicle. Run that thing in Colorado without DOT authorization and you'll get a class B ticket.

The beer makes it official.  

I used to love that about surveying. Flashing light, vest and reflective hat meant I could go ANYWHERE

I am not saying this is right by any means. /disclaimer

Up here all the private plow trucks have a amber light going for the most part. They also tend to plow with a partial 12 pack in the truck. You will never see one pulled over unless they end up in a ditch, but you'll probably find some empties when the leaving piles melt.

So far, the FIRM’s crew hasn’t cited Chris.

If you're just operating it on private property, no worries. 

We only run the blinky light when at the track or if we are on one of our Classic Motorsports Road Tours pulled over on the side of the road for some extra visibility. 

Also slapping it on the roof through the window makes me feel like I am about to be part of the Beastie Boys Sabotage music video.
