The biggest issue here is the "fine line". There are so many items attached in this new law that the cops are actually given cheat sheets that say what the punishment is for a said violation. They can pull us over when they just "think" we are breaking the law. Which for those law abiders is fine, as I am usually such, but the thought of being pulled over for resting my feet on my frame sliders, standing up to rest my butt or adjust my pants, or riding with a hand on my hip makes me a tad nervous for those cops who want to take this law overboard and decide I look like i'm prepping to wheelie or some such which is a viable concern. In a state where the majority of riders are stunnas or squids, it would make anyone nervous!
The article posted with this thread says it's for cars as well. They said they busted a mustang already with it going 145mph. All what you listed is already illegal in Tenn, people already get pulled over for one handing it here when the cops feel like being bastards, so I still don't see a problem with this.
