Two articles on state-by-state idling laws:

Where You Can Idle and Where You Can't Part I
Where You Can Idle and Where You Can't Part II

Only problem is that "standard" hampters would not be able to muster up to the task. If you put them on steroids, they would not pass the drug test. Back to square one.

There is a cure to the "ANTI-IDLING". But, no one is willing to do it. Don't serve the states that have those laws in place. Simple as that. Refuse to serve them. It won't be long and they'll re-think their laws. But you don't have the guts to do that.

My solution? I'm going to retire and get off the road completely. Retirement coming up very soon.

all but a few of those states usually don't bother me. I was on I-90 on the thru-way, it was hot and I was ideling my truck, a dozen police whent into amd out of the service plaza well w/in earshot of my truck idleing away and didn't even look my way. Cali is a diferent monster all together but the few times I was there I did idle my truck. was just fortunate enough i guess.
