would it hurt to drive my car for 3 hours with no hood so i can go pick up my new hood? assuming it isnt raining of course

 

no but it might be illegal

 

Illegal?

 

does anyone know if it is illegal in ohio or indiana to drive with no hood? i cant find any laws about that except the hood cannot obstruct the view of the road

 

i believe its legal

 

i think so too but it would great if anyone knew for sure lol

 

Just put it in the back, that's what I did



You gotta push the drivers side seat all the way up, so you may get uncomfortable, but it's not bad.

 

If it was illegal to drive in ohio without a hood there are some people around here who are gonna get in trouble

 

I've heard of people getting pulled over, but I don't know what state they were in.

 

wtf, no way it's illegal or every other ricer I see would be in jail

 

Say it's either that or tarp duct-taped across the engine bay which is a fire hazard.

 

You made me curious about the legality, and since I do nothing at work I searched it ... all I found was ricer forums (lol) and no definitive answers for you... but I'm actually leaning towards that it will be illegal

however

Driving 3 hours trying to not get caught should be exciting and I say you go for it. If the cop gets mad tell him the latch broke (and it was unsafe) and you're going to buy a hood right now.

 

I doubt it's illegal, but i'm not 100% sure. Why not just call your local police station and ask?

 

I wouldn't worry about it.

 

Maybe you'll just get a fix it ticket. In which case you just go show the dumb **** cop or judge that you infact do now have a hood.

 

Why do they have to be a dumb ****?

 

if you dont mind me asking, why do you need to drive with no hood in the first place?

 

no other veihicle to put a new hood in and i cant fit the hood in the hatch with me in the car too cuz i need my seat all the way back as im 6'6"

 

I live in PA and No offense but I see ALOT of cars in OH with no hood. Hell Ive seen cars with no door.lol

 

perfectly legal in OHIO, i ran for three years with no hood, rain,snow,sleet or hail, just like the ****** f*ckin mail. but it is however a equipment violation in WV. trust me i have had every moving violation known to man.
