    The no shaved door handles law is because, if you're trapped inside after an accident and unconscious, the rescue guys might not be able to get you out.I heard of such a law in one of the Canadian provinces back in the 'sixties, but never found it written anywhere.

    Nice setup! Now where did you get that prism from I have the same issue with the traffic lights.

    "The strange looking “prism” thingie lets me see traffic lights overhead—the top is low enough and extends beyond the windshield far enough, to give you the “hunch-neck syndrome” trying to see the traffic light."

    These guys have 'em. I can't find it on their web page, but I saw them in their catalog. They are popular with the chopped top crowd.

    Of course, that's just my opinion, I could be wrong!

    To refute that argument all you have to do is point to the automatic door locks that lock all the doors as soon as the car moves. If they need to get you out, they can break a window! Another rediculous law trying to protect us from ourselves!
