Default Bead Locks...

Please anyone with the answer tell me if you will.

Why is it against the law to run bead locks on the highway?
Seems like they would be safer and never pop off the rim or blow the bead correct...

Some one please enlighten me..

because when you run over a spike strips the tire will stay on till the tire explodes
you can get fake bead locks but they can pull you over for that too
