You want one? Go to Ranch 99...i heard they like 4.99 there. HAHA! I teach in Cupertino and all of the Asian mom's floss those visor things. They pretty cool because you can wear it as a hat during the night and use it as shade during the day....

BTW, I think they should be illigal here in the states. If I can't tint my front windows, or wear as mask while I'm driving, then they can't wear those.

I wonder why she cuts in and out? no peripheral vision?! That thing has to distort what you see.

What bugs me more is all the FOB's with newspaper or something jammed blocking their window. It's one thing not to use your mirror or check your blind spot, it's another thing to make it IMPOSSIBLE to do so! cheeze whiz.
