Legality aside, what’s hanging from your rear-view mirror?
Here’s what both my wife & I have on ours
NOLA beads!
Nothing on mine - I find such decorations distracting when I drive.
A chrome ‘Peace’ symbol.
Nothing – I find such things annoying (in addition to distracting)
(although in the past I’ve had to have parking passes hanging there for various places I’ve worked. But they generally didn’t swing much)
I hate having things dangling in my field of vision, but now I have to have a parking permit there.
From the truck mirror: a string of puka beads
From the car mirror: a pod bracelet from a casino giveaway
Car #1 - Nothing
Car#2 - A tissue paper-and-pipe cleaner flower my son made.
Same here. It also blocks your vision.
Always a parking permit for our condo complex whenever we have a car.
I have one of those dream catcher things. It’s small, so it doesn’t distract me.
A pewter crucifix that a friend gave me when I was 16. That friend, about 6 years later, was hit by a speeding car and spent months in a coma. He came out of the coma, recovered, and long story short is fine now. The day I brought home by first (and so far only) vehicle - I just learned how to drive at 36 years old - I hung that crucifix on my rearview mirror and said a prayer for it to keep me safe.
(I know “it” isn’t able to keep me safe, what I mean is that I will always be attentive and safe when driving.)
Sometimes I put the little air freshener leaves on there for purely practical purposes. I think anything that is there solely for decoration looks incredibly tacky.
Nothing.
No bumper stickers or other decorations either.
Nothing hanging from it but the 407 transponder is stuck to the back of it.
Nothing, because a) I don’t own a car and b) hamging dangly objects in your field of view seems dumb to me
A small glass ornament in the shape of a teapot, because I’m Asian
Nothing, when I park I hang my handicap sign, It says right on it do not hang while driving but I see them all the time. There was a study once that showed how a pack of cigs sitting in your window could make you not see someone crossing in front of you why does anyone risk it at all? not just stupid but dangerous.
A couple of those air freshener tree things (it used to be a barn truck…:D) and up until a few months ago, my old parking pass for the garage in Anchorage.
I barely notice them, Can’t see how they’d be distracting.
A paper flower my older daughter made at a Dia de los Muertos festival last year.
