Will I get pulled over with only one headlight?

I just got into a car accident last weekend and the passenger side headlight is completely gone (glass and all) I haven't had time to get it fixed yet and am driving 2 hours home this weekend so my dad can fix it. However, I am going to be forced to drive into the night time. How likely is it that I will get pulled over or ticketed for driving with only one headlight?Will I get pulled over with only one headlight?It depends on the cop, he may just give a warning.Will I get pulled over with only one headlight?Depends on if the cop is bored or a dick.



But yes, it is ticketable, but again, depends on the above.



Don't drive like a tard, and he SHOULD leave you alone...



That is if you even come across a cop.Will I get pulled over with only one headlight?You may get pulled over for it but if you explain you are driving home to get it fixed then they will usually let you go or only give you a fix-it ticket which just means you have to get it fixed and prove you got it fixed then the ticket disappears like you never even got it. I have gotten pulled over once for it but i had the headlight in my passenger seat so he just let me go. Unless they are a complete jerk you shouldnt have a problem.Good Luck.Will I get pulled over with only one headlight?50/50 chance of being stopped, but if you do just say you were hit %26amp; your driving home.Will I get pulled over with only one headlight?you might get pulled over depending on how the cops are in your area, most suburbs police will pull you over and issue a warning, in the city area most cops don't care about it much but if they do decide to pull you over they most likely will issue you a ticket for i think 75 dollars.



what one of my friends did when he got hit and his headlight smashed into pieces, he duck tapped a flash lights to the bumper where the light would be at and turned it on, as long the cops see you have to lights on they won't bother with you even if one is super bright and the other is super weak/low.Will I get pulled over with only one headlight?is possible that you get pull over but if you have everything on file nothing to worried. now maybe you can ask your dad to come to you, that would be less riskyWill I get pulled over with only one headlight?That's what I would do. Buy the proper headlight you are going to put on the car and leave it on your front seat in case you get pulled over. Then you can explain you are going to fix it, and offer proof of this on your seat.
