....

Actually I think anything blocking the drivers vision is illegal and a fail,  ......

In that case, if I was a Traffic Copper I'd remove all the TomTom/sat-nav/etc that you see in the middle of the screen directly in front of the driver (......... how the hell can you see where you're going with it there) and make the driver drive over the thing!!!  >:( >:( ::)

not so long ago in new trucks we had to reposition the rear camera monitors on the dash they were failing the mot. even stickers across the top of the screen which crossed into the swept zone by more than 40mm.

Those buggers voting for air freshener are lucky this software hides who voted what  >:(


Actually I think anything blocking the drivers vision is illegal and a fail, so if they wanted to be awkward and not remove it themselves it could fail? Fluffy dice spring to mind, or how big is the air freshener and wheres it hanging lol
Being a new member, you will be unaware that I cherish the VT30 I have, stating "Air Freshener".

Cherish? That wasn't quite what I meant...

As stated, the handbrake seemed the obvious so gone for "other lights" with a guess that the lenses are milky!
