    So earlier this morning I got into a little fender bender, and now my rear left door won't close. Does anyone know if it is legal in the USA to temporarily replace an entire door with a trash-bag covering while I drive to a mechanic/auto body shop? Thanks!

    You probably just drive there without a door I mean Jeeps normally don't have doors.

    It probably depends on your area. I would do it anyways and just tell the police that you are driving to the repair place. It should be fine as long as a repair shop is the only place you are driving.
