Not Even Air Fresheners?!

1.) In this article it tells about the law banning things from hanging on your rear view mirror. Some say it is just an excuse for police officers to pull people over. There is no reason for them to be pulling you over for having an air freshener or small prayer beads hanging from your mirror. It would only be necessary if it really was a driving hazard and obstructed your view.
2.)  "I call it a 'gotcha' law. It's an excuse to pull someone over." I like this quote because it shows that police officer use any excuse they can to get people in trouble. I don't think this is the only 'gotcha' law either. I think that its your own car so  unless it is a major distraction, they need to back off and let you put what you want in it.
3.) I do not agree with this ban. It would be very unfair to pull somebody over when 99.9 percent of cars on the road have things dangling from their mirrors. People also put things their for real meaning sometimes. Its not always about the looks. I personally have a small rosary hanging from my mirror and it makes me feel just a little bit safer. I know i am not the only one with this theory. The ban should definitely be taken away because police officers could not possible pull everybody with something on their mirror over, and this law would never be enforced.
