I'm no expert.... but I don't think he can even have those lights legally on there.
Well then look it up in your state's motor vehicle code, particularly if your main goal is to ridicule the guy for having them. In my state he'd be fine, the
law regulates use, not possession.
We use retired medic rigs for prisoner transports and don't switch out the red lenses for blue, why spend the money? If it's a work truck he probably has other concerns than spending cash to change lenses on lights he may never be using.
Oddly enough, I seem to recall something in the Ohio Revised Code that requires that deadlined school busses be stripped of their markings and signals before resale, so the school bus whackers and impersonators are out of business and anyone who wants to go all hippie or Partridge family won't be able to swing that little STOP sign out and keep people from passing them.
Now if he's a contractor, and drives a retired meatwagon, and saws one of his fingers off, or power-nails himself to a shingle, and doesn't have a first aid kit in it, that'd be hilarious. Those lights could come in handy then, along with a cooler and some ice for the finger.
