Windshield Banners illegal? Yes or No?
I was over at SilentRage checking out graphics and they have a windshield banner that goes along the bottom of the window with some graphics up the passenger side slightly. Does anyone know if I put this on if I will be pulled over for "obstruction of view" or some garbage? Has anyone had any issues with banners of any type? Thanks!

Oh man! They can't pull you over just for front tints or banners, can they?!?!?!?!?! My friend says, if you're crazy enough to get pulled over for speeding, that's when the police can crack down on what you have. They can do a full checkup while they're at it too: lights, exhaust, intake, tints, and whatever else they can fine you for they will. Right? [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]
