    Those are both taken from the same dashcam, the second picture was taken with it tilted a little.

    If you're in the right state. You can get a ticker for flaps flapping in the wind also.

    Tx and Az are 2.

    I had a DOT in Iowa, that one guy that you know is going to find something wrong, write me up for the mudflaps not having that tape. I told him that I didn't even have to have them on there while pulling a trailer. He agreed but said that if I do have them on there, the tape has to be on them. Also wrote me for my logs. One day I didn't write the number "24" in the box for total hours. I know it probably could have been worse though.

    But he will still get pulled around back at the scalehouse by the scalemaster that dont know about the exemption for older trailers. And then while he's getting question about it you know their going to find something else wrong. It wouldn't be worth the hassle.

    Not according to the PA DOT Officer I had the pleasure to deal with one time...
    Side note, for a person that is a police officer, he sure did have dirty and untidy uniform

    I’ve never seen a dash cam picture that looks like that but you can see he’s taking different angles of pictures so if it is a dash cam he moving it around and focusing it somehow

    tilted is that what your really going with that’s a h@@@ of a tilt your in the second lane in both pictures one you can see all the way to the other side of the interstate the second you can barely see the lane beside you.Anything but the truth right you take pictures of a guy post them to show what he’s doing wrong and create bs on your own wrong

    What are you inspector gadget?

    For you and the other guy that appear to be aspiring photo recognition experts, Y'all better just keep trucking, cause you would never make it in that line of work. You both have no clue what your talking about.

    My dashcam's might spin for all you know.
