Sticker Shock—A Kentucky woman hit with a $56 traffic ticket for driving a van cluttered with political stickers, snow globes and other paraphernalia has a clean slate.

On Sept. 12, 2012, Lynda Farley of Edmonton, Ky., was driving home from 9/11 remembrance ceremonies in New York City in her “Liberty Van,” a 2004 Nissan Quest. A New Jersey state trooper pulled her over, took issue with a garland of flowers surrounding Farley’s front windshield and issued her a ticket for obstructed views.
