Law Bans Open Food, Drinks In Vehicles

POSTED: 10:32 am EDT April 20, 2005

FORT WAYNE, Ind. -- There's a problem with the open-container law in Fort Wayne.

Officials have discovered that the ordinance bans all open containers in vehicles -- not just containers of alcohol.

That means an open can of soda, or even an open bag of chips in the car, is technically against the law, and could be subject to a $50 fine.

City attorneys have brought the matter to the attention of the City Council, which voted Tuesday to fix the law. The new version could get final approval next week.

Anyone wanna bet that Democrats are behind this?
