A dealership owner and SCCA member told me graphics across the top of your window are illegal in Virginia and a $180 ticket. He told me that my NISSAN across the top of mine would be fined. Only graphics included from the factory on windows are legal. Anybody know anything more? True or untrue, how often ticketed?

 

true, but you won't ever get ticketed unless it's some HUGE ricer banner that obstructs vision

OR

if the cop wants to be a d!ck, but most cops don't even know about this law so you're in luck

 

True. I have had the required Tire Rack banner on my car every once in a while and never had an issue. I don't really drive it enough to get noticed, though.

 

as long as its not below the inside rear view mirror you should have no issues with it

 

This is sort of what I figured- a law but rarely enforced. The owner of Convenience Car Car in Manassas said he and his dad got ticketed on the way to Summit Point last year- each with a $180 fine. The cop must have been bored or did not like race cars in tow or something. They each had Convenience Car Care stickers on the top of the windshield, apparently. Those delinquents!
