The legal system has little patience I have seen with repeat offenders.
Find out the minimum state law and abide by it.
I see plenty of vehicles with 1 mirror rolling around.
If you have mirrors and they're folded in, a cop is liable to think that you went off roading with an 18 pack and came back without the 18 pack.
