The Highway Code and Road Traffic Act state that if a driver's view of the road is obstructed in any way, they could be breaking the law.

Recently, it was reported that air fresheners or 'fluffy dice' on a motorist's real view window could land them £1000 fines and 3 points off their license.

This goes for any decorations or modification that negatively affects views of the road for car users.

If a driver's road safety is affected by these, they could also be penalised for dangerous driving.
