There is no context in which having that should be street legal.

[–] NeatNit@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 7 hours ago

If no one's gonna mention it, I will: love the Pikachu plush! my mom also has some plishies on her windshield, it always gives a cozy feeling 😊

[–] mbp@slrpnk.net 1 points 6 hours ago

Is that the Sanford exit? Those trucks are done a dozen there

[–] CompactFlax@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

It’s awful for the steering geometry to have the wheels offset so far from where they’re supposed to be. So not only does it eat tyres and ball joints, it also handles worse than it already would.

RIP your windshield.

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 7 points 11 hours ago

The wider wheels put huge leverage forces on the suspension joints and hubs they were never designed for. With time and a few bumps, the front wheels will fall off.

All tolerated because some fucking idiot culture.

[–] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 6 points 12 hours ago

Sucks about your window, bro, but this truck has never even seen mud, and that was a rock, bro, not mud. - that guy probably

[–] WanderWisley@lemmy.world 4 points 12 hours ago

Outa my way liberal! I gotta get home and eat my 72oz steak covered in cheese that my fat bitch wife microwave me after I just worked 16 hours at the ball crushing factory!

[–] Almacca@aussie.zone 20 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago)

Looks like low profile tyres as well. What a wanker.

[–] huppakee@lemmy.world 28 points 1 day ago (5 children)

Non-american here, is this legal in the US??

[–] Malyca@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Laws are just pieces of paper now

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 10 points 11 hours ago

Not in US, not in Canada, but police stopped working in 2020. They figured out the get paid just as much.

[–] Onomatopoeia@lemmy.cafe 28 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 23 hours ago) (2 children)

No, it isn't.

Cops just don't enforce it.

Wheels must be fully enclosed so they don't throw debris up.

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 10 points 11 hours ago

Those wheels also grab pedestrians and cyclists and pull them under the vehicle at intersections. Record numbers of pedestrians getting killed but we decided to prioritize toxic masculinity.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 20 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago)

It depends on the state; there is no federal laws about mudflaps on non-commercial vehicles. Only 7 states have explicit rules requiring them, and another 6 have conditional rules.

[–] sanitation@lemmy.today 22 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 23 hours ago) (1 children)

Street legal sure. You can't import a byd but you can do this shit

The way American insurance work - u just file a claim of damage - as long as you took a picture of other guy license plates - their insurance will just pay out. Seen it

[–] thejml@sh.itjust.works 3 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

Unless it hits the road and bounces up. Happened to my parents when a metal chunk got kicked up by a truck in front of them, it hit the ground right in front of them and pierced their muffler. Claim denied.

[–] sanitation@lemmy.today 1 points 1 hour ago

they probably said as much, they should have kept story short - out of wheels straight into my windshield. license plate. nothing else. insurance wont be spending time figuring it out. glass is cheap, agent time isnt.

[–] Winning@lemmy.world 8 points 13 hours ago

When you go to Luigi them, make sure the bullet ricochets off the ground so they don't have a life insurance claim.

[–] zwerg@feddit.org 1 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

But licence plates seem to be optional in the U.S. Such a strange country...

[–] betterdeadthanreddit@lemmy.world 6 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago) (2 children)

Where do you believe they are not required? Some places let you get away with one on the ~~front or~~ back instead of both and a newly-purchased vehicle might have temporary paper tags but if it's on the road, it needs to have some kind of license plate.

(Looked it up later, turns out all states require rear plates and some also need one on the front. No states only require the front plate.)

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 4 points 11 hours ago

In Ontario, we have no visible licence plate validation and most of the plates are illegible because of a corrupt deal between the government and 3M.

[–] zwerg@feddit.org 5 points 14 hours ago

The idea that you only need one at the front or the back seems crazy to me.

[–] mrmisses@lemmy.world 3 points 23 hours ago

Yes it's required for people with tiny pps

[–] just2look@lemmy.zip 9 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

Mud flaps generally aren't legally required. However multiple states don't allow tires to be that far outside of the wheel well.

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 6 points 11 hours ago

Most countries do not allow tires to extend past the fender for this exact reason.

[–] XeroxCool@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Wheel coverings are required with a maximum exposure limit. The body usually does the job. Look to the 2022 Jag F-type and F-pace for little spats in the upper rear of the rear wheel arch for hidden compliancy.

[–] just2look@lemmy.zip 1 points 36 minutes ago

I knew there were rules for that with commercial vehicles, I wasn't sure about private. And it gets even more complicated since every state is different.
