Honda Civic Reg Plate Lights

[Munter]

As the evenings are dark now and I'm doing a lot of trips up the motorways, I've noticed that the new shape Honda Civic has lights so bright for it's reg plate that I cant read it until really close due to the glare. I cant believe I'm always following the same car so it has to be a design thing.

Any of the bib noticed this?

(Oh and if any of the bib see a black civic typeR on a 57 plate in Wolves/Dudly being driven by a man with African heritage give him a tug)

I'm not a BiB but I haven't noticed it at all.

Jealousy isn't a nice colour, and that aside how do you think the BiB tugging him for no reason is going to help anything.

Jealousy? If they see his driving they wont be pulling him for "no reason"

Anyway my point was about all Civics of that shape. Even the scummy ones. Reg Plate lights are SOOO bright I thought they had dropped down and were showing to the rear until I noticed it on every one of them.

Does it matter if you can read his number plate or not? Surely there are more things to worry about when your travelling on a duel carriage way at night?

jeez. I was just curious if it had caused the bib on here any problems. As it's them who are likely to notice these things. Because as you point out the rest of us are normally concentrating on other things. (Such as the guy in the typeR weaving around all over the place and jumping reds...).

Having noticed it upon the black civic it reminded me of one I saw previously and I saw it was every civic, and just out of curiosity I thought "I wonder if the bib on PH have trouble with that as they look at number plates, so I'll post on teh bib forum and find out".

I'm not suggesting it's illegal or dangerous or all civics should be crushed and their drivers hanged until dead and rotting. I was simply just curious.

If thats ok with you?

Does it matter or not to you if you are unable to get the reg of the car thats just smashed into the side of you?
Does it matter or not if you have to pay out of your own pocket for the damage caused?

So by your logic I can just take off my number plates then?

(And it's a dual carriageway...but congratulations on the correct use of "there&quot

Whoever designed the arse of the new Civic wants shooting, anyway.

What a brainwave, let's put a spoiler in the way of rear vision, and let's omit a rear wiper, just to make sure rear visibility is pants.

And it's pig ugly from the back.

The numberplate is the least of it's worries!

Yes, that is my logic.

Sorry about my spelling.
