Law Loosened

     The state of Michigan might change the law regarding items hanging from rearview mirrors and allow small objects to dangle. Many people are unaware that this law even exists and policemen do not enforce it.
      "Unless it's large and an obvious obstruction, it's just silly for police to pull somebody over for that. People aren't hurting anybody and they're not causing any danger." I like this quote because he makes a good point in saying it's not hurting anyone to hang a small object from your rearview mirror. Police should worry more about distractions such as texting or putting on makeup while driving because these actions are very dangerous and more likely to cause crashes than simply having something dangle from your rearview mirror. 
     I agree with this ban because I was unaware that this law even existed, until I read this article, and feel that if Michigan has that law they should make sure people know about it and enforce it. Also I see no harm in hanging prayer beads, or whatever it may be, from your rearview mirror.
