Third Brake Light!?
Tough getting that to stick in court when your vehicle did not come equipped with one from the manufacture...
Sounds like the LEO was justifiying a reason to pull you over.
according to google: In 1986, NHTSA began requiring all new cars to have a third brake light. The agency extended that requirement to all new light trucks in 1994. Op’s profile show his jeep is an 2003.
