That's a stretch. Who is to say that docking lights obstruct Nav lights. I have both docking lights and Nav lights and they most certainly DO NOT obstruct one from seeing my Nav lights. I realize that I should not drive with them on so i do not do it. If this was a case of something that was not illegal than Marine Patrol could have given the old "Excuse me sir, you left your docking lights on." "Oh thank you sir." "Have a good evening folks." Instead it turned in to a full scale stop.

So the main question is where is the RSA that states that it is ILLEGAL to drive with docking lights on? Do not feed me the obstruction of my Nav lights BS because I'll challenge anyone to a test on that.

You're up Skip this is usually your area of expertise.
