Okay i have 2 TV's in my visors and i was wondering if it was legal to have the passenger side screen visor down and not the driver side one? I know it's illegal (i think) to have the driver side TV down but is it illegal for the Passenger side one to be down? I stay in Texas to by the way! Thanx

i don't know about texas, but in PA it is illegal to have any screens that is visible to the driver, i guess the passenger side could technically be visible to the driver. That's why i am glad to have an in-dash screen. I got pulled over bout 2 mths ago and i just pushed the button to close the screen.
Originally posted by nrrhgreg Effective Sept 1 03 it is illegal in Texas to have a montior anywhere in view of the driver. Exceptions of course are factory GS systems.
Generally, the idea is not to have it in view of the driver. But its not really a big issue for most officers.

I wish they would make it a big deal, that shit is annoying. I get tired of seeing these crappy cadallacs with like 10 screens in their car all playing nasty ass hardcore porn & only the driver in the car, just driving around showing off how badass he is. Even worse when you get stuck in traffic behind one of those.
as far as i know you are able to have as many screens in the back of your car as you want but screens in the front seat are able to be on the passengers side below the front dash,
In Ontario its illigal just having a tv screen installed in the front area of the vehicle. Dosent even matter if the screen is on while being driven, just having one is an offence.
See, this is confusing to me. You can drive with a friggn TV flashing on the highway at night. Let alone, 10 TV's at once, like mentioned above. That really pisses me off. My reason is because I happen to like neon. I have blue neon on my car that is controlled with a switch. I cant drive with a solid light on = blue, or I get pulled over, but if I had a TV flashing away because they do that, then I would be fine. Makes no sense to me. How is neon a destraction and a TV is not, especially 10 at the same time, displaying porn of all things. AAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!
blue and red lights generally dipict a police officer, and as for the distraction point, its because teenagers with ricers are bad drivers, didnt anyone tell you that , cause apperantly im a bad driver because im a teenager although im willing to stake that on any given day i could out drive those cops, but the point is people get confused when they see the lights and they either a. Think its a cop, or B. think ohhhhhhh pretty lights i think ill stop driving and stare. It basically comes down to... people are stupid,
NO engine mods... SWAP or TURBO .....nothing less!!!!!
