I do not have this product yet either. Trying to determine the legality of it. Contrary to what the sheriff below says, TITLE 49, UNITED STATES CODE
CHAPTER 301 MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY says that no state my usurp a Federal regulation. http://www.nhtsa.gov/cars/rules/standards/chapt301.html
1. When a motor vehicle safety standard is in effect under this chapter, a State or a political subdivision of a State may prescribe or continue in effect a standard applicable to the same aspect of performance of a motor vehicle or motor vehicle equipment only if the standard is identical to the standard prescribed under this chapter. However, the United States Government, a State, or a political subdivision of a State may prescribe a standard for a motor vehicle or motor vehicle equipment obtained for its own use that imposes a higher performance requirement than that required by the otherwise applicable standard under this chapter.
2. A State may enforce a standard that is identical to a standard prescribed under this chapter.
So it sounds to me like a state can enforce a stricter standard for their own vehicles, but must abide by Federal regulations. Am I interpreting this correctly?
