Ruling: Car lights don't need to work perfectly, just well

Quote:

SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) — New Mexico's highest court has ruled that state law doesn't require vehicle tail lights all be working perfectly, only that they work well enough for their intended use.

A ruling Monday by the state Supreme Court stems from a man's conviction for violating a state law requiring that certain vehicle equipment be in “good working order."

To conclude that “good working order" means free from flaws or defects “would impose an absurd standard for vehicles on New Mexico roads and highways because it would require that equipment be in perfect condition, beyond a more reasonable expectation that equipment functions for its intended use," Justice S. Shannon Bacon wrote for the court.

The case began when a Bernalillo County sheriff's deputy pulled the man over because one bulb in a tail lamp didn't work despite the rest of the lamp being illuminated.

The man was convicted for both driving a vehicle with defective equipment and for driving under the influence, and his appeals argued that there weren't grounds to pull him over because his tail lamp was operating well enough.

The Supreme Court's ruling sends the case back to district court for further proceedings.

For 1957, the Black Widow was the combination to build. What you started with, was a 1512-optioned Chevrolet 150 utility sedan (two-door, no back seat, fixed rear windows, and no radio or arm rests) which was the lightest sedan Chevrolet manufactured that year. Under the hood was a 283 cubic-inch engine with 283 horsepower, fed by Rochester fuel injection.
