Re: Being ticketed for not clearing snow from your motor vehicle before driving it... Sareitha Sedai Send a noteboard - 03/02/2011 05:19:01 PM
1. What is your opinion on the subject?

A) Awesome way to penalize someone for being stupid and/or lazy which could have deadly effects.


This.

B) Another stupid nanny state law.


Hardly. To me nanny state laws are about preventing people from doing things that only hurt themselves...not about preventing people from doing things that have the real potential to hurt others. And most of the laws around what you are and aren't allowed to do while driving fall into that latter category.

C) Meh, I don't care- I live in a warm place that doesn't get snow much, if at all.


Bitches :P

2. Does your state/country have a law about this already?


I don't think so, though we're one of the snowiest areas of the country.

3. If yes, what is the penalty?

I realize this may be a pot-stirring question, but I found it an appropriate question just after a big snowstorm.


I'm curious why you think this would be a pot-stirrer :D

If you're going to accept the legitimacy of traffic laws in the first place, this is okay. - 03/02/2011 04:15:37 PM 898 Views
Legitimacy of traffic laws? XD *NM* - 03/02/2011 04:21:56 PM 355 Views

Aren't there already laws against driving a car with an obstructed view? *NM* - 03/02/2011 04:57:05 PM 352 Views
That's what I thought, too. - 03/02/2011 05:04:10 PM 878 Views
It seems to me that the issue isn't the obstructed view at all. - 03/02/2011 05:11:50 PM 894 Views
I guess I'd have to see some statistics on that. - 03/02/2011 06:03:02 PM 833 Views
