Anti Idling

The common thread in most of the anti-idling rules imposed by cities and states (26 so far) seems to be no idling within 100 feet of a restricted area.  The restricted areas are most likely to be around homes and schools.   The time allowed to idle ranges between 3 – 15 minutes depending upon which city and state you happen to be inquiring at the time. There are exemptions to the regulations and they vary widely depending upon what city or state you happen to be concerned.  The fines imposed also vary widely depending upon the city or state.  The following link will provide information on states, cities, and county regulations.
