Stopped in motor home for going too slow on I-80
This just goes to show how things can escalate to a huge problem when you are just driving along minding your own business. Kinda hard to believe this goes on. Motor home stopped for going too slow

And now you are being slanted in the information you are providing from the case. You have listed one item when the officer cited three different reasons for the stop, two of which were law violations. Covering the rear window is not a law violation. So lets look at all three. And this is the second stop that was made on the motorhome:
1. Fisher observed Gorman’s motor home traveling westbound with the
driver’s side window obstructed by a window curtain that had been pulled forward. (That is a law violation, you can't obstruct your side view.)
2. Fisher followed the motor home and observed it drift to the right onto the fog line three times and remain on the fog line each time for approximately 400 yards. (Another violation, not driving within the traffic lane is a illegal)
3. Fisher also observed that the rear window of the motor home was obstructed by blinds or curtains that were partially closed. (Not a law violation and I don't know why the Deputy even included this, but it doesn't matter as you only need one law violation for a traffic stop and we already have two)
But you did give us a fine example of slanted reporting when you posted on the one item and tried to make it look like the guy was stopped for having blinds on his rear window. That is exactly the techniques used by media reporters to slant a story.
