Is that just in case the DUI charges don't stick?!

That's a way to reach the weekly quota in one evening. Dog pile on every possible charge.

Fight the charges in court.
The trunk only minimally obstructs driver's view. The tree's canopy is well above the driver's line of sight, and being deciduous, has no leaves at this time of year. Bogus charge. |

Is this just a Lincoln thing to have a trunk at the front?

Actually if a LEO wants to break your brass ones, there have been convictions when a driver fought the obstructed view citation for radar detectors stuck to the window. One example:
http://www.expertlaw.com/forums/showthread.php?t=29731 IIRC, many moons ago some loud mouth kid got written up for an air freshener hanging from the mirror and it stuck.

What is this world coming to? What about freedom of expression? If having a tree trunk as a hood ornament makes me complete I should be allowed to live my dream!

I'm stumped as to why these charges are laid.

The judge is going to have to sentence her to planting some trees as part of her community service otherwise it will not come full circle.
The trees cry for justice. One of their own has been taken. It was just a sapling, and with so much to live for.

The root of the problem is simple.
The tree was just acting instinctually. The car was encroaching on it's habitat. Crape myrtles used in parking lot beautification projects everywhere will have no choice to but fight back. As time goes by, I can only see these altercations increasing in frequency. Understanding is the first step. Last edited by LEAKYSEALS951; 03-10-2016 at 07:49 AM.. |

Symbols, angels, warriors, women, birds.
All have been used as hood ornaments. Manufacturers need to make a bold statement and firmly plant their roots in the marketplace. "Sorry officer. This was on the car when I bought it."
