It feels like this story is becoming repetitive: X state is trying to ban Tesla stores, or the ability for an automaker to sell directly to a consumer. Either way, it's all aimed at Tesla. Now it's New Jersey's turn as a hearing today could end up banning Tesla stores in the state.

Tesla's arguing the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission is overstepping its bounds.

So the states are fighting against competitions to protect their local automobile industries. Seems the old industries pay their politicians well.
