In an effort to clean up the state law books, Gov. Mark Dayton and the Minnesota state Legislature have made it legal to coast downhill in neutral.
Here's the original 1937 law:
Quote:
Sec. 74. Coasting.—(a) The driver of any motor vehicle when traveling upon a down grade shall not coast with the gears of such vehicle in neutral.
(b) The driver of a commercial motor vehicle when traveling upon a down grade shall not coast with the clutch disengaged.
