Florida Statute 316.2004...(b) No person shall drive any motor vehicle with any sign, poster, or other nontransparent material upon the front windshield, side wings, or side or rear windows of such vehicle which materially obstructs, obscures, or impairs the driver’s clear view of the highway or any intersecting highway.
My elderly uncle, a curmudgeon, testified at one of his buddy's DUI trials to the effect his buddy only had one beer the whole time they were at the bar. The prosecutor didn't believe this testimony so cross examined my uncle on how attentive he was to his buddy. The prosecutor asked: "Did you gaze into his eyes?" My uncle responded, indignantly: "What do you think I am?" The jury laughed out loud.
That took cojones. I would not do that, for fear of being the next Rodney King.

Then the officer asked me to step out of my car, you're staggering, he said. You're pretty handsome yourself, I replied.
