Bike Light Modification: There is a lack of lighting on most of the roads in India. In such a situation, if the headlight of your bike is not right, then you have to face a lot of trouble. Many people get aftermarket fog lamps installed in their bikes to get rid of this problem. In such a situation, their work gets done but they do not know whether it is legally right or wrong.
Bike fitted fog lamps may help you, but on the road, it causes problems for other drivers. Actually, the fog lamp emits bright light which can dazzle the eyes of the people coming from the front and thus increases the risk of an accident.
