Dec. 13 (UPI) — Police in Wyoming are reminding residents to decorate their homes for Christmas instead of their vehicles after a driver was pulled over with their car illuminated by festive lights.
The Wyoming Highway Patrol shared a photo on social media showing a Ford Mustang pulled over by a trooper who noticed the entire vehicle was decked out in colorful lights for the holidays.
“As the holiday season approaches, we would like to remind you of a Wyoming statue,” the post said.
The statute in question states that “no person shall drive or move any vehicle or equipment upon any highway with any lamp or device thereon capable of displaying a red or blue light visible from directly in front of the center thereof.”
The post said that while decorating a car “might look cool and be festive, we would to remind you that it is illegal. Please remember to stay safe when celebrating this season!”
