It’s one thing to dangle fuzzy dice from a rear view mirror, but decorating a trailer hitch with a large pair of rubber testicles might be a bit much in Virginia.

State Del. Lionel Spruill introduced a bill Tuesday to ban displaying replicas of human genitalia on vehicles, calling it a safety issue because it could distract other drivers.

What could I possibly add to this? Except to say that the flashy billboards on Rt. 146 that look like giant TVs are the most distracting thing I’ve seen on the road yet. I agree with Lady Bird Johnson that we should take them all down, and keep America beautiful. It should be easier to ban billboards than to infringe on our Constitutional right to drive ugly cars, but the billboard lobby probably has more cojones with politicians than the truck testicle industry.
