Nothing. It is illegal in many of not all jurisdictions and would create probable cause for a traffic stop regardless if you’re cited for it or not.

Similar to the vehicles that have “other than” white or amber colored lights emanating from the front of a vehicle or white, amber or red from the rear. Any other color light visible is PC if the vehicle is on the road. So those that run caliper, rock or any other lights and they are visible from the front or rear you are free game…not to mention those running non SAE or DOT approved lights. You’re just asking for trouble.

…but only when parked…otherwise…see above about the probable cause. Making yourself as small of a target as possible oftentimes times will get you benefit of doubt credits??

I guess these aren’t popular in the states that don’t allow mirror hangin.

Folks hang them all the time, but most I’ve seen are under a seat… kind of cheeky in a $60,000 vehicle.

Sounds like you need a tin foil hat. Jesus. Not everyone lives in a socialist state. Infact most states have no laws against it..

It is also standing case law that an ordinance violation and or regulatory traffic infraction are not justifiable cause for a Terry Stop. They have to have reasonable suspicion of criminal activity to initiate a terry stop. Ordinance violations and regulatory infractions have never been considered criminal activity.

He wasn't wearing a seat belt, I thought his tint was to dark, he had a dangle, he was drinking from a plastic straw, I thought his exhaust was to loud are subjective observations and not evidence quantifiable to rise to the point of reasonable suspicion of criminal activity.

Lmao could you imagine people doing 20 to life for unlawful possession of a glade air freshner?

Not to mention an illegal stop, illegal detainment, and pathetic non criminal ticket is a big 4th Amendment violation. It will be laughed out of court and the jurisdiction will have the holy hell sued out of them.

If I want to hang a freshly killed chicken from my rearview mirror, my state has no law against it.

With the exception that it’s a safety issue of impeding your view. …not to mention that cheekon…B…stank!?
