Default Iowa to ban spinners

"He said he has noticed more of the spinners in recent months and that the more common they become, the more likely they are to cause an accident."

that seems the complete OPPOSITE to me. Being more popular makes them more recognizeable and you'd be easier to tell whether or not they were spinners or not. eyeroll.gif I'm embarassed to say he's a republican.

I agree with the car tire/wheel distributor on this one. I think that Republican senator might have had a tad too much to drink when he was pulling those dozen ladders. What is a senator doing carrying around a dozen ladders anyway? LOL.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that wondered about that.

now if only they would outlaw nasty body kits, bad paint, and bad taste all together.

Honestly, as much as I do not like spinners, I do not like where ideas such this go. How soon till chromed rims are banned, then aluminum.. so on and so forth?
