He admitted he left his car running on his driveaway to warm while he went inside for 8 minutes in January..which is AGAINST the law in Michigan He appealed it on the basis that the law shouldn't apply to cars on driveways by Judge Marco Santina said otherwise. He said upholding the fine is "in the public interest" His case drew attention from media outlets as he posted the image of how he left his car running. He said he went outside in 20F temperatures and put the keys in the ignition and set the heaters running while he waited inside to warm up..when he went back inside after a few minutes, he saw the fine on his windshield with the cop gone! He's a DJ and Best Buy worker and said Officer Keary should hve knocked on his door rather than fining him The police said there is a rule to protect drivers as dozens of cars are stolen each winter from opportunistic thieves and it drives up insurance premiums of more careful drivers and inflates crime!! Do you think it was fair to fine him? let's see what people think.

He's not wrong. If it's on his drive he should be allowed to do that with his property. However it's the law that he's not allowed to so fair, next.

-6C? if it was -20C or under, ok, but -6C is nothing.

Sounds like a law that should be repealed. I couldn't imagine not being allowed to not warm my car up in the winter. I don't always do it, but when it's getting to -20C and lower it's a practical necessity. Having windows frost up while I'm driving because they haven't been defrosted yet is a hazard.
In all honesty, that law sounds more like a reason to generate revenue via tickets. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

It seems that the guy left his car unlocked and running, if he had the car locked and warming is that still against the law?
Edit, otherwise, what is the point of automatic car starters? --- PSN:Happydeuce600 Steam Deuce420 ... Copied to Clipboard!

My car has a remote starter that locks the doors before starting it, and shuts off the car as soon as the door is opened, preventing the problem of thieves being able to steal the car. I wonder if I'd be exempt from this law.

WTF with all the "it's the law, so fair" comments? It's a bs law, so no, it's not fair.
Michigan has lots of bs laws they actually enforce, and the highest auto insurance premiums in the country by a huge margin (due...shocker...to a dumb law). I mean, I'd never want to live somewhere that cold anyway, but their own self-inflicted laws make me definitely never want to so much as travel there. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I bet the guy who gave the ticket and the judge who found him guilty both start their cars to warm them up on a daily basis

Not only is it to generate easy money for the state government. It's also to protect the narrow interests of the insurance lobby at the expense of all the people in the state! ...

In accordance to the law, yes it's fair. However, the law should be updated to prevent vagueness or abuse, as well as to cut down on the stupid.
