State moves to ban fake testicles on vehicles

By Michael PeltierFri Apr 25, 12:03 PM ET

Senate lawmakers in Florida have voted to ban the fake bull testicles that dangle from the trailer hitches of many trucks and cars throughout the state.

Republican Sen. Cary Baker, a gun shop owner from Eustis, Florida, called the adornments offensive and proposed the ban. Motorists would be fined $60 for displaying the novelty items, which are known by brand names like "Truck Nutz" and resemble the south end of a bull moving north.

The Florida Senate voted last week to add the measure to a broader transportation bill, but it is not included in the House version.

In a spirited debate laced with double entendre, Senate lawmakers questioned whether the state should curtail freedom of expression in vehicle accessories.

Critics of the ban included the Senate Rules Chairman, Sen. Jim King, a Jacksonville Republican whose truck sported a pair until his wife protested.

The bill's sponsor doubted it would succeed.

"It's probably not going to make it through the process," Baker said on Thursday. "It won't be much of story in a few days."

I hope it makes it all the way. They could call it the ball bill. :zoinks:

They cum in a variety of colors too.  I think they are gross I've been seeing them around for about a year mostly rednecks and jocks have them

Even though I am tasteless and tacky, I can't imagine hanging these from my truck.

Someone else's truck maybe. :evillaugh:

I think this bill is ridiculous as truck nuts.

They even sell them for RC trucks...

I have seen them, but I thought they served some function on the trailer hitch.  I didn't know that they were supposed to be "decorative."

I guess they are tacky, but I don't know why there should be a law against them.

I guess it offends the grandma of the world.  Having a law would be a bad idea as there are already too many stupid laws as it it
