Thats why you should connect it to any ground so it will trick the radio into thinking the e-brake is up.
That whole fine thing is b.s to me.
I've been pulled over many many times with my screen open and viewing the FM radio and they never questioned me on it.
WHY DO YOU NEED TO WATCH ANYTHING!?!? Just drive and pay attention to the road. And fines being imposed are giong to vary by officer, if they want to investigate, they will. There's nothing illegal about have the FM radio screen up while your driving, that will work reguardless of grounding the parking brake.
