Q: Amber light laws in Iowa

asked by on January 17, 2017

I am wanting to put amber lights in my truck for when I am on the side of the road helping people, and can't find the amber light laws, though I know they are out there.

Hi there. I wish we could give you a direct answer here, but your best source is to contact the DMV in Iowa to ask them about amber lights and whether they are legal in your state.
