Illegal or Legal?
Is it illegal to drive without a trunk lid?
Especially in the state of CT?

Thanks!

Anybody have any insight? I have a guy coming to pick up a trunk lid today because he had a CF that was vandalized, he is planning on driving down (~1 hour) without a trunk lid.

Just wanted to make sure he's gonna be ok.

I would imagine he would be pulled over....He may talk his way out of it if he says he is going to buy a hood....

Have him tape some plastic over the trunk if he is worried about getting stopped.
