    No!  Stuff like that makes for a distracted driver.

    Definitely not. It would obstruct rather than distract me; but I don't even like objects lying on the dashboard where they become reflected on the windscreen.

    Currently, no, but just yesterday I took down the sunglasses that I had hanging there. They’re now floating around lost somewhere in the car. My wife has Rosary beads hanging from the rear view mirror in her car.

    Ever hear of Dante Wright? Pulled over because of an air freshener dangling from his mirror. May he rest in peace. Yes, he was Black.

    I didn't know that.

    I think darkly-tinted vehicle windows should be illegal.
    There are times when it's necessary to actually, and literally, see the other drivers on the road.

    I guess that's just my stupid opinion because many, many vehicles in my area seemingly have no drivers, nor passengers, based upon what one can see through windows.

    Maybe you should come to Minnesota.  Tinted windshields and more than 50% tint on front side windows is illegal. Lots of rules here; it's not for everybody.

    Minnesota!! I visited there and had a great time!  :) 
     
    And the window law, I admit, is appealing to me.

    I came to Minnesota specifically to visit Hinckley, Minnesota and to explore the area of the horrific 1894 fire. I had read several books about that event and was compelled to visit and explore -- a great museum in Hinckley, beautiful area and everyone was very nice to me.

    What a tragic fire -- I am surprise it is not more well known by the general public. I only heard about if first as an adult.


    And I must have driven okay -- no tickets or citations.  :)

      Let’s say, hypothetically of course, you wanted to be more specific as to which part of Minnesota . . . 


    (Cough, cough.)

    That's weird to me. If everyone knows about profiling, and if I were a drug dealer of any color, I'd make sure to have clear windows.  :)

    I see a lot of these kinds of dark windows.

    A deodoriser. I don't let it dangle, it's fixed so as not to cause distraction.

    I fitted a reversing-camera to my car, which although quite small can sometimes be very awkward to park in my narrow street.

    The display screen is quite small and held to the windscreen by a suction-cup, but it took me a while to find a location where it gives the least obstruction.

    No, but if she doesn't cease that incessant jabbering in my ear, there will be soon!
