Hello all,
So I went to get a VA safety inspection but it turns out I failed it for two reasons. They said my exhaust had a leak in it. I have the 5zigen Fireball exhaust system. I still have the stock exhaust so I was thinking of just switching it back to the stock exhaust. The other reason why I failed I don't understand. They told me that my fog/driving lights have to go off when I have my high beams on. I never heard of this. I have had these lights for 4+ years and I have never had a problem before this. Is this guy wrong or what? I am not sure what the VA laws say about this. Also to note, I can with the touch of a button turn off the fog lights whenever I want. Am I breaking some sort of safety law with these lights? I understand the exhaust thing but not this. Anyone with experience in this area please let me know. Thanks

Steve

wow that sucks. you still have to pay even though u failed right? in all my years getting inspections done, no one has ever looked at any of my lights/turn signals, etc

Why do you need fog lamps on with high beams?

If you need fog lamps to see in fog then turning on high beams makes the glare worse

cause they blind drivers.

which is bs cause what drivers are around when you have your high beams on?

I think I remember hearing that legally you can't have more than 4 driving lights on at the same time. So either Low beams + Fogs or Low beams + High beams. The factory setting turns off the fogs when you click on the high beams.

Yeah I had to pay even though I failed but he said I only had to pay $1 when I come back to get it reinspected. So I guess it is true that my fog lights have to go out when the high beams are on. I will just take out the fog lights when I get it inspected again then put them back in afterwards. As for the exhaust, I wonder if 5zigen gives some sort of warranty on this product. Is it not weird for a small hole to form after a period of time? Thanks for the replies.
