I did. Mine wasnt even on tho, I just had the screen flipped out and it was completely blue because there was no disc. I got out of the ticket tho since I had a PBA card.

i have a question about that. can i catch a ticket if my screen is out and playing a "music" cd. maybe im lucky that the cops around paterson could give 2 shits what ur doin as long as its not drug-related but i have gotten "the look" many times before.

Cops stop me every once in a while, no big since it's navi only.

Ticket no...Pulled over yes....If a cop sees it they will pull you over. The reason theyll pull you over is saying its a distraction to you and other motorists. Though if you dont have a dvd playing they cant do anything. The reason being as so many things now are being put into the drivers view its hard for a police officer to get you. Theres navigation, satelite radio, tons of things. If your not watching some video i doubt they will say anything. They cant tell what im doing cause all they see is blue cause of my satelite radio and it overpowers the light from the screen.

I haven't but mine is low so you don't notice it unless it is night time. Even at night though with my friends watching a dvd I have never been pulled over.

i know they will pull you over for it, but i would probably be an asshole and point out that the cop was using his laptop going down the road b4 he pulled me over....
