TEXT: We are interested in obtaining information regarding any federal regulations that may apply to or restrict the use of items which might be suspended from the centered rear view mirror in an automobile or truck.

Specifically we are anxious to avoid liability for any obstruction of vision which might occur as the result of the use of such items. I refer to such decorations as hanging dice, air fresheners, etc.

Any information you can give me would be most appreciated.
