Depends where you're at. I know someone that just got a $500 fine this summer for having blue lights.

Typically Red and Blue are the 2 lights you avoid. In some states yellow as well.

Otherwise just make a quick call to your local PD and they can give you an answer.

Because Red and Blue are reserved for Emergency Vehicle and Police use.

You show blue's up-front, in Massachusetts ... they take your car!

Yessir!! That is why I also threw yellow out there. Not sure if there are laws out there regarding the use of yellow only on utility vehicles or such.

Pontiacs, Cadillacs, and Vettes all have yellow driving lights. Yellow isnt a problem.
