+1 Thank the DOT. Unlike every other goverment agency, they aren't very progressive with adding / modifying regs. Just look at the laser light technology fiasco. I would so have waited to get that amazing tech on our 40i, but what they offer us as "laser lights" has all the best smart features disabled in them. no thanks, but I'd love to have the full tech version they sell in the rest of the world.
