Hey just wanted to FYI you guys that I got pulled over this morning... Well reason was I was speeding but he let me go on that..woo..... but he cited for obstruction of view since I have too many stickers on my front windshield. Becareful because they are cracking down on it. SInce I have curtains, they said you cannot have curtains unless it's detachable and if the curtains hide behind the column where your seatbelt thingee is, it's ok. Also huge broadway mirrors are not legal too. I was surprised on the broadway mirror since I have a 300MM mirror. SO becarfeul guys...........FYI

I wonder why the broadway mirror is not legal, especially when it provides a better area of view? weird.

Good to know! Yeah, a while back I got pulled over for tinted tails. But I also had my club sticker going up the side of the windshield and the cop said I have to get rid of it. Oh well.

did you tell the cop that you are the last surviving Samurai from Japan and you could kill him in less than 5 sec? LOL.

Yeah man did he only give you 1 obstruction of view or did he get you for each one in the windshield? As for Broadways, wow I didn't know those mirrors are illegal too? Curtains I can understand.

just one kirby......so I gotta take all those stickers off......

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I guess it's just illegal because it takes up more of your field of vision . Thats' stupid though.

So many laws so little fun.

So many laws so little fun.

^2 :tap:

I also heard the broadway mirror messed with your depth perception. That might have something to do it with it?

i got pulled over for my front sticker too
and they told me to remove it....does anyone know how to get it signed off?

i can't believe the information on the rear view mirror. it provides a better view, so i think that could be won in court. glad i don't live in so cal anymore.

yah they told me. but sticker wise if you want to get it signed off, just go to the local chp place and have it signed off.

Damn that sucks man,
I was just pulled over 2 weeks ago for front tinted windows (LAPD) and was given a warning about my smoked taillights, the cop was cool but too cool cuz I still ended up with the tix. Does anyone know what the cost of the fix-it-tix are?

About the broadway mirror i've never heard of that either, maybe he was just being an A about it.

I think the fix it ticket is you pay $25 in court or something....forgot

fix it tickets are 10 bucks. make sure you go to the chp because they dont charge to write off your ticket. you will pay the 10 bucks when you show it to the court.

I actually asked him how much is it. I asked him wasn't it $10 and he said no it went up to $25.

Yeah they bumped it up to $25 from $10. I got pulled over recently for slightly tinted taillights and they wanted to give me a ticker for my wheels poking out past my fenders

they seriously get you for front stickers? i figurred it was like the tint law you could ahve the top 6" or bottom 6"

Decals on the front windshield are destruction of view.

now I gotta take it off....oh well.

That sucks, as far as the Broadway mirrors that is odd, but it could be like someone else said, because it takes up slightly more room in your vision and possibly because most are convex (or concave?) and are different than your standard mirror.

It messes with your depth perception and can make things seem farther than they are, more-so than a normal mirror I believe.

obstruction* :lalala:

That sucks, Ken. I'm screwed when I start driving the tC around now, lol.

You guys got too many dumb arsed laws out there. Out here, I roll with a fully tinted windshield and only been hassled by DPS one time in 2 years and that was for my side window tint. Go figure.

might be nice james....

fix it tickets are 10 bucks. make sure you go to the chp because they dont charge to write off your ticket. you will pay the 10 bucks when you show it to the court.Umm.. No one should charge to sign off a ticket as far as I know.. Just find any peace officer (CHP, local PD, or Sheriffs) and ask them to look it over. If everything looks fine, then they'll sign it off.

And I'll play devil's advocate about the Broadway mirror - Sure, it help's your view of the REAR, but it destructs your FRONTAL view.. Plus, if you know how to set your sideview mirrors right, you shouldn't have blind spots in the rear anyway. Mine are set perfectly, and I have no blind spots. I rarely look over when I switch lanes anymore. :lalala:

P.S. - It helps to have friends of friends who are police officers. My front tint never came off when I got my ticket for it. :wink:

might be nice james.... :eyebrow: ????

You mean "MUST be nice"?

looks like cali is out to decrease the deficit. time to legalize mary jane in cali

must be nice yeah hahaha

obstruct, not destruct.
