New Caroline Car Modification Bill

[80FoxCoupe]

The truck he posted belongs to a famous YouTuber, whistlindiesel, who proceeded to destroy that truck with his bare hands lol.

Oh, gotcha.

This has been law in IL for as long as I've been driving. The catch is, that no one obeys the laws.

If they want to make a bill to get rid of squat trucks due to safety concerns that’s all fine, but they need to have a more solid way of measuring it (IE measured headlight angle)

How about when the bumper can take off your roof? Seriously, we already have bumper laws. They just need to be enforced. Police can and do ticket these geniuses but they still get away with it.

Because everyone's daddy knows a judge in smalltown USA. Lol.

I’m aware we already have bumper laws. Again, my gripe is the way they are measuring to enforce this law. There’s enough variance involved in the current way they want to do it that it creates more leeway for some trucks vs others. If they want a solid bill, they need a reliable way of measuring it (like I said before, measured headlight angle or something else). If it can’t reliably be measured, then it can’t reliably be enforced

The way they're measuring it is fine.

Front and rear measurements are to be measured and compared against the manufacturer's specified ride heights.

And I know that some manufacturer's go off the bumpers so what happens if someone changes to a different bumper that changes the measurement?

 

[Norm Peterson]

Bumper height measurements may be given, but ride heights are really measured at the suspensions for suspension geometry and alignment reasons.

In any case, burden of proof would fall on the individual who switched bumpers to prove that if the OE bumpers were still in place that the truck would pass.
