At least nothing I could find on the DMV’s website. What exactly are they cracking down on? Did they make something up hoping that nobody would notice? If I get ticketed for eating a burger or drinking coffee I’m taking it to trial. :eyebrow: ---

new york state is fuckin poor another excuse for them to buy one on of those big stupid RV home looking things and strap (insert county name here) on the side of it i just saw the city of buffalo has this thing and its huge it offers no tactical advantage to anything and it costs more gas to operate then its worth another waste of taxpayers dollars for a city that has not even enough crime or a high level of a crime for them to need it let alone a swat team like cheektowaga :bloated: what the fuck ever happens there? ---

could you then state that since the officer driving the cop car, was watching you eating, that he was in fact also distracted and should be issued the same ticket? ---

So according to this, if your driving with your window open, and your left hand is hanging out on the bottom window pain, you can get a ticket? WTF I haven’t seen the commercial. Its things like this that make me want to firebomb stuff, or mushroom stamp girls. That also means you can’t change the radio station or cd, or even adjust your windows, so then do you have to pay tolls? [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/the-f-k/34507.md?page=2)
