I have to get my car state inspection done. The window tint guy no longer offers tint due to the law cracking down on tinted windows. This leaves me in bad situation. From Google search, I read: “ The windshield and front side windows must allow at least 70% of light to pass through (meaning th…

I duck-ducked and googled, dual side mirrors simply means sideview mirrors on both sides of a vehicle. I was thinking more that it meant multiple element side mirrors on each side, some convex, some flat, like what you see on the sides of a semi cab or school bus. No. Just a mirror on both sides.

[image] ChrisTheTireWhisperer: Now all automobiles have dual sideview mirrors. Is it a globalist plot? You can attribute well over 90% of all vehicle mandated safety features to the insurance industry and their paid lobbyists.

New Hampshire. I get it. But I have no problem with common-sense mandates, such as dual-side mirrors, seatbelts at every position, airbags, brake lights, turn signals.

[image] ChrisTheTireWhisperer: New Hampshire. I get it. Try again. Mandated safety features are at the federal level. Stop .being an ass. Or are you really that clueless.

I don’t need the government to protect me from myself. They should have better things to do. I live near the Niagara river. It is 36 mile long and there is no place on my side of the river that is legal to swim in because in the nanny state of NY you cannot swim anyplace without a lifeguard and no …

[image] oldtimer-11: I swam across it twice as a 12 year old without incident. Actually 4 times because I had to swim back. The laws are in place to not only protect the people who can’t swim it, but also the search and rescue teams that have to be sent out to save them or recover the body. M…

Wow, I think 95+ % of my swimming has been done in areas without life guards. In the 60s there was a beach near Mpls we favored. We would go there after the lifeguards left, nobody cared. Got chased out by the sheriff’s deputies once, but only because the lake had been sprayed for weeds and they …
