Mine got torn off. 16:45:20 that's good in some ways 16:46:07 did you still have to file a claim for it? 16:49:04 I don't believe so. 16:49:23 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 yeah 18:19:17 Technically speaking, I believe it is legal to drive with only two working rear-view mirrors. 18:21:04 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 yeah, it might be state-by-state as well 18:22:13 it'd need to be looked up 18:31:21 -!- Puyopuyo has left #Cochineal [Ping timeout: 240 seconds] 18:32:26 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 what about nj, de, and md? 18:38:57 (Mind you, I'm not a lawyer, so I'd still probably try to find an alternate approach) 18:41:05 yeah 18:41:15 best to be fully covered 18:41:28 last thing is to get caught with a ticket for something with an alternative 18:43:26 NJ requires driver's side, and the far side only if the rear-view is obstructed. 18:46:18 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 MD is the same as NJ. 18:49:50 NY is probably interpreted in practice as NJ. 18:50:20 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 Not "You must have two mirrors" (which would imply that rear-view and passenger side would be legal) 18:57:35 not bad then 18:57:44 de's is so broad 18:57:57 It's written broadly 18:58:15 But I suspect that in practice it's treated the same as the others. 18:58:30 Although I guess that technically it could mean that a rear view mirror alone would be sufficient 19:02:00 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 if that was the only car, it'd be different 19:04:46 Sure 19:10:47 -!- Puyopuyo has joined #Cochineal 19:10:47 -!- ChanServ set mode +o on Puyopuyo 19:11:43 While that's probably true, I don't like having difficulty passing on the right. 19:52:08 -!- gadgetgrl has left #Cochineal [Quit: gadgetgrl] 20:43:54 So according to Jennie, there will be baseball games all of the days of Otakon. 20:43:59 Beware the massive crowds of doom.
