Absolutely illegal!! As it is in all 50 states. Surefire way to get a ticket.
Just take your car to any auto part store,..they'll be glad to help you out. Just be sure to replace BOTH headlights at the same time.

Yes and it is illegal everywhere.

It's illegal in every state and, I suppose, every country on earth to drive with a headlight burned out.

Yes it is. A lot of things are illegal in PA. My sister was pulled over by a PA State Trooper because a len cover over her reverse light fell off. The light was there, but it didn't matter to the officer. He gave her a warning and made her stop by a police station to verify that it was fixed. Once the police officer verified it was fixed, she had to send a paper into Harrisburg. It's not worth the hassle and also risking an accident. Get it fixed. Headlights aren't expensive.

yes it is , but as i am sure you see people do it every day. The biggest risk you probably face it getting pulled over to let you know it is burned out.

The infraction is "defective equipment" and it is a ticketable offense in all 50 states.

In states where a seatbelt violation is a secondary offense, it is a very good way to get pulled over by the police and get handed 2 tickets- 1 for the burned out bulb & the 2nd for not wearing your seatbelt.

Yes.........you would be ticketed for a safety violation.
