provides that “A person shall not drive or operate with any objects suspended
between the driver and the windshield other than sun visors and rearview
mirrors and electronic toll collection devices.”

may be incurred by disregarding this notice. While driving in any state with
windshield mounting restrictions, TomTom recommends the use of the
supplied Adhesive Mounting Disk or its Alternative Mounting Kit, which
includes multiple options for mounting TomTom devices on the dashboard
