I just read an article that said mounting your GPS on the windshield (or anything else) is illegal in most states. Reason is that it obscures your vision.
I don't think it materially obscures my vision and in fact is no different than having it sit on top of the dashboard, or even worse in a position where you have to take your eyes off the road to see it (including a built in GPS). Anyone here ever ticketed for that "violation". [And what about all that stuff people hang from their rear view mirrors?] For years I have said we just have too damn many laws in this country. If strictly enforced we would all be in jail or bankrupt from paying the fines.
