Amber Light Bars

Amber is the workhorse warning color, and it is the one you can run without a permit. These are amber LED light bars for tow and recovery, construction, utility, municipal, plow, agricultural, pilot car and airport ground vehicles. Every size we build is available in amber, from a 17" magnetic mini bar to a 68" full-width heavy-duty bar.

Which amber configuration do you need?

Straight amber is the default and the right choice for most work vehicles. Amber and white adds steady-burn scene lighting for night work. Amber and green is used by incident command and some utility fleets. Amber and blue appears on snow removal and airport operations in the states that permit it. Need amber with white scene lighting and rear tow-package sections? See tow truck light bars.

No permit required

Amber is the permitted warning color for non-emergency vehicles in all fifty states. Tow trucks, construction and utility vehicles, snow plows, farm equipment, pilot and escort cars, and airport ground support can all run amber without department authorization, where red and blue cannot. A handful of states place conditions on amber combined with other colors, and a few require 360-degree visibility when stopped on a highway shoulder, so confirm your state code if you are running a combination configuration or working multiple states.

Amber light bar questions

Are amber light bars legal?

Amber is the most broadly permitted warning color for tow, plow, construction, escort and utility vehicles. Some states require a permit or restrict use to work sites; the amber warning light laws by state guide covers every state.

What about amber and white?

The amber and white combination, amber warning plus white scene light, lives on the tow truck light bars page with every size preselected.

Is there a magnetic amber option?

The 11" mini and the 17" run magnet feet, and smaller magnetic beacons and minis are in strobes and mini light bars.
