| 01:36:55 [Puyopuyo] | Ugh. Garage isn't open until Monday. |
| 01:37:00 [Puyopuyo] | I hope this can be fixed quickly. |
| 01:37:01 [Puyopuyo] | * Puyopuyo sighs. |
| 02:11:37 [gadgetgrl] | boo |
| 02:11:48 [gadgetgrl] | as long as they have the part in, shouldn't be too bad i would think |
| 02:11:57 [gadgetgrl] | depends on how busy they are :/ |
| 02:12:12 [gadgetgrl] | did it damage the panel the mirror was attached to? |
| 02:12:23 [gadgetgrl] | that would be the only detriment i could imagine |

| 03:14:53 [Puyopuyo] | <@gadgetgrl> did it damage the panel the mirror was attached to? | It's an electronic mirror, and the wires were torn clear apart, so...yyeeeah. |
| 03:21:13 [gadgetgrl] | oh :/ |
| 03:21:52 [Puyopuyo] | Quite the number she did. So...if I'm lucky, we might be able to wrangle something quick. Otherwise my car's definitely out of commission. |
| 03:21:54 [Puyopuyo] | * Puyopuyo sighs. |
| 03:24:22 [gadgetgrl] | yeah |
| 03:24:41 [gadgetgrl] | what'd she hit? |

| 16:39:04 [Puyopuyo] | Nothing was said! *waves fingers* |
| 16:39:33 [Puyopuyo] | Oh, and to answer your question: A parked car. |
| 16:39:41 [Puyopuyo] | Its mirror survived. Mine got torn off. |
| 16:45:20 [gadgetgrl] | that's good in some ways |
| 16:46:07 [gadgetgrl] | did you still have to file a claim for it? |
| 16:49:04 [Puyopuyo] | I don't believe so. |
| 16:49:23 [Puyopuyo] | I mean, the owner wasn't around, and no damage was done, so I figure it's not a deal there, and we'll just have to deal with it. |
| 16:56:38 [gadgetgrl] | yeah |
| 18:19:17 [Pipian] | Technically speaking, I believe it is legal to drive with only two working rear-view mirrors. |
| 18:21:04 [Pipian] | But this is based on my recollections from a trip a long time ago where the correct interpretation may also be "If the center rear-view mirrors are blocked, you must have both side mirrors viewable." I don't really remember. |
| 18:22:05 [gadgetgrl] | yeah, it might be state-by-state as well |
| 18:22:13 [gadgetgrl] | it'd need to be looked up |
| 18:31:21 [Puyopuyo] | -!- Puyopuyo has left #Cochineal [Quit: Ping timeout: 240 seconds] |
| 18:32:26 [Pipian] | e.g. New York requires specifically a left-side wing mirror for a car to be legally driven, but does not require a right one unless the rear-window transmits less than 70% of incoming light. |
| 18:38:08 [gadgetgrl] | what about nj, de, and md? |
| 18:38:57 [Pipian] | (Mind you, I'm not a lawyer, so I'd still probably try to find an alternate approach) |
| 18:41:05 [gadgetgrl] | yeah |
| 18:41:15 [gadgetgrl] | best to be fully covered |
| 18:41:28 [gadgetgrl] | last thing is to get caught with a ticket for something with an alternative |
| 18:43:26 [Pipian] | NJ requires driver's side, and the far side only if the rear-view is obstructed. |
| 18:46:18 [Pipian] | DE doesn't appear to require anything more than that there be a mirror placed such that they can see cars which overtake the vehicle (i.e. presumably implying rear and driver's side, or both sides if rear is blocked) |
| 18:49:38 [Pipian] | MD is the same as NJ. |
| 18:49:50 [Pipian] | NY is probably interpreted in practice as NJ. |
| 18:50:20 [Pipian] | So the general rule is "You must have a driver side mirror, and only need a passenger side mirror if the rear view is blocked." |
| 18:50:46 [Pipian] | Not "You must have two mirrors" (which would imply that rear-view and passenger side would be legal) |
| 18:57:35 [gadgetgrl] | not bad then |
| 18:57:44 [gadgetgrl] | de's is so broad |
| 18:57:57 [Pipian] | It's written broadly |
| 18:58:15 [Pipian] | But I suspect that in practice it's treated the same as the others. |
| 18:58:30 [Pipian] | Although I guess that technically it could mean that a rear view mirror alone would be sufficient |
| 19:02:00 [Pipian] | But yeah, better safe than sorry, especially if you think you would be an unsafe driver without the mirror, which is really the final arbiter on the matter. |
| 19:04:32 [gadgetgrl] | if that was the only car, it'd be different |
| 19:04:46 [Pipian] | Sure |

| 20:43:54 [Puyopuyo] | So according to Jennie, there will be baseball games all of the days of Otakon. |
