In this article Matt Helms discussed the ban of objects hanging from your rear view mirror. He talks about how the ban might soon be eased up on, by letting some items like pray beads or air fresheners be allowed on the mirrors. In the article Sen. Ron Jelinek goes on to say that that this kind of law or band is just “a 'gotcha' law. It's an excuse to pull someone over”. I agree with this statement that keeping this law as it is, is simple used for an excuse for the police to pull someone over if they are suspicious and have no other, real reason.
I agree with this ban that drivers should not be allowed to have objects on their rear view mirror that could possible obstruct or distract their view while driving like fuzzy dice, but I do not think it is an issue to have small items that are not causing any problems to the drivers.
