HF 2120 Iowa House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A bill for an act relating to the color of light displayed by headlamps and auxiliary driving lamps, and making penalties applicable.

HF 2120 requires all motor vehicles (except motorcycles, motorized bicycles, and ATVs) to use only white light for headlamps and auxiliary driving lamps. It prohibits non-white colors on these specific lights, applying to vehicle owners and manufacturers who install such lamps. Violations are classified as a minor offense with a $45 fine. The bill does not affect color requirements for signal lamps like turn signals or brake lights. This is a straightforward safety regulation focusing solely on lamp color standards.
