Headlight covers, arizona violation

[Stangme]

HEADLIGHT COVERS

Today about 30-minutes ago I was pulled over by Arizona's finest, Department of Public Safety and was told that driving my car with headlight covers on it is against the law here in Arizona, it violates 28-941.4. As I was able to pull my covers off on the spot, he only gave me a WARNING / EQUIPMENT REPAIR ORDER.

Pass this on to those with covers or tint over their lights.
