is it illegal to have your doors completely removed while driving?

i just saw this on tellico4x4 so was wondering...

I think some states have an issue with you not having mirrors. I dont think they care about doors. The problem lies with were the mirrors mount.

In GA you only need one rear facing mirror to be legal.

I run mine all summer without doors. Just have a rear view and side mirrors. I have a set that fits into the slot where the hinge is. No worries.
I've grown tired of this.

I asked three different police officers the first summer I had my Jeep just to make sure and yes you only have to have the one mirror on the windshield to be legal in GA.  Also found it in the state code.

As far as mounting your mirrors with doors off I just got some flat bar with two holes in each end and a pair of bolts so I could mount my mirrors to the hinges, but I don't even use that anymore.

Richard, if you have these for a TJ I may be interested in buying them if you want to sell. As for the mirrors... if anybody is interested I will part with them for $30. I payed $60 for them from quadratec.
