Florida Senate votes to ban bull testicles on pickup trucks

The Florida Senate has voted to make it illegal to attach fake bull testicles to trailer hitches on pickup trucks.

The bill was sponsored by Sen. Cary Baker, R-Eustis, and imposes a $60 fine on motorists who attach artificial “reproductive glands” to their vehicles.

Sen. Jim King, R-Jacksonville, opposed the bill. He said fake bull testicles are simply “an expression of truckliness” and noted that he displayed a pair of them on his own “all pimped out” vehicle until his wife made him remove them.

King also warned that the state would now have to hire “bumper police.”

The Senate transportation bill must now be reconciled with a House version that doesn’t include the anti-testicle clause.
