I got pulled over for having 8 forward lights on at one time. I had my fog lights(2), parking lights(2) low beams(2) and high beams(2) on at the same time. The MAX you can have at one time is 6 lit up counting marker/parking/turn lights, as the State Trooper informed me.
With my new HIDs on my Contour SVT...I only have my HIDs, parking, and fogs on at all times, no high beams needed.
