They could pull you over for safety concerns of your vehicle with the sparking issue. I pulled over a trailer once because the chain that hung off of it was bouncing all over the road and sparking.
Or they could cite you for criminal damage to the road way. We have some of those small pickups with air suspensions in which they lower the rear ends of them and start sparking on the road way on purpose. We warned them several times. Now it is to the point where they are cited every time they do it.
There is a law regarding the headlight height....
