As with anything done to our cars, checking the local laws and regulations is a good idea. I believe "coasting" is illegal in most states but as already mentioned, next to impossible to enforce. Just use some common sense and care, don't give people a reason to care about you (police or otherwise) and go about your business. I remember everyone telling me that when I put on wheel well covers and blocking the front grille that those were somehow "illegal".

I proved them wrong and I have the law/DMV ordanances on my side (and the lack of any citations or pullovers from police since I started doing the mods).
