Florida Senate amendment takes on 'Truck Nutz'


The Florida Senate on Thursday passed an amendment to impose a $60 fine on Truck Nutz, one brand name for the novelty item on vehicle trailer hitches that resemble the dangling southern end of a northbound bull.

The proposal would make displaying bull genitalia reproductions on a vehicle subject to a $60 fine, moving violations and points against a driver license.

The penalties were proposed by Sen. Carey Baker, R-Eustis.

Sen. Jim King, R-Jacksonville, said he had a set on one of his vehicles, which he described as "all pimped out." They are no more than "an expression of truckliness," he said, although he'd acceded to his wife's request to take them off.

"I find it shocking we'd tell people with metallic testicles on their bumpers that this is a violation," said Sen. Steve Geller, D-Hallandale. "There's got to be better things for us to spend time debating."

Geller suggested this ban might be followed by prohibiting silhouettes of nude women on truck mud flaps.

"We're basically going to have the bumper police," King said.

"All their concerns are legitimate," Baker said of the critics. "And I do have more important things to do this session. But I think this is important, too."

The transportation bill was debated Thursday, and a vote is expected next week. The House version, however, doesn't include the prohibition.

There is not a shortage of oil like some would have you beleive ! The enviromentalists are the ones causing this fuel nightmare .. How you ask ?? By preventing drilling in Alaska because of the "harm" it will supposidly cause to the enviroment . THere is a shit load of oil up their . We could be driving around with are E- brakes on and only paying 1.00 a gallon !! But we are forced to buy foreghin oil because it's ok in there back yard but not ours . Also the reason #2 fuel ( deisel and home heating oil ) is so much money is because of the extra refining proscess to control the amount emissions emited from it. The Eco nuts are truly ruining this country and the government is letting them .
