GPS units blocking car windshield illegal

Last Updated (Tuesday, 30 November 1999 00:00) Written by Elizabeth Burns

One of our members noticed an article in the Toronto Star on July 5th which says that the provincial Highway Traffic Act prohibits having any object obstructing the driver's view through the windshield or windows.

According to the article, "to avoid possibly running afoul of the law, it might be best to mount your GPS unit to the front of the dash (not on top) below the level of the windshield."

For the full article, see the Toronto Star Wheels section from July 5th.
