We shouldn't be so happy. Their definition of Hellaflush, while correct, also sounds like it would include ANY lowered vehicles. I would not define my car as hellaflush. I have stock camber and my tires fit the rims, however, I am tucking a little front and rear. A police officer might decide that my car is hellaflush anyways and ticket me, or worse.

Here's the part that I don't like...

Changes to the suspension geometry
The majority of vehicles have lowered anomalies on the adjustment of camber 1 . Indeed, the adjustment of camber is not provided on several vehicle models, making it impossible to align the wheels of the vehicle according to the manufacturer's specifications. To compensate, the suspension has to work outside the range for which it was designed, reducing the handling and stability of the vehicle and the area of contact with the road.
Change the geometry of the suspension of a vehicle reduces its maneuverability and safety. Furthermore, it is prohibited to use components too rigid suspension or insufficient travel. It is also forbidden to modify a vehicle to the point where the tires touch a vehicle component or part of the vehicle body touches the road in normal driving conditions.

I knew it! Top Gear doesn't start til 4!

I do not like the fact of how this can be interpreted if it begins to be adopted and enforced by the states. As any lowered vehicle will likely be targeted as someone else mentioned.

i vote for a nationwide ban of stanced cars.

not even a joke.

Hold on...there is no mention of how they are going to define this. Exactly what are the parameters? I would suspect that when it comes down to it what becomes illegal is the high end of the look. Anyone have details?

i think they should appoint me as the national stance advisor.

finally obama would do something AND get it right in his 8 year joke.

i would be fair but firm (giggity) in my stance against stanced vehicles.

The link is not showing up well on in my browser. It looks like there is a 'more' link and is not working for me. So my question is: How do they define what is illegal?

Z1NONLY 08-13-2014 03:36 PM

They need a concrete definition of "unsafe".

If "unsafe" is written into law as "whatever an officer says", then this is a really bad idea.

"Looks stupid", "douche-bag car", "dumb", etc. This is subjective BS that makes for terrible laws.

So I didn't see anything in the article about the definition of what the law says is "unsafe".

...And I am not a fan of Hella-flush.
