HCF I need your opinions...
Yea they wouldn't give my mother a dollar ammount, they just said it could range from $5 up to over $200 plus $165 ****ing dollars for court costs, even though I'm not taking it to court. So I guess I have to walk into the court house with a wad of cash in my wallet becaue I don't have a credit card/debit/check.
Icompletely understand their viewpoint on it, that is why I am not bitching about it even though I don't really like the law. Honestly, I think any tint level should be legal and if he officer fears for his safety all he has to do is order me through the loudspeaker to put my hands out the window, open the door from the outside, and step out of the car with my hands where he can see them. That way he stays safe and I get to tint my windows dark, no one looses. But hey, who gives a **** what I think, right?
Hailchristian, I do have a radar detector... a good one, but he wasn't using his radar at that time, just sitting across from a gas station jerkin off. I was going 10 mph under the limit so I guess he was just out of donutsor bored or something.
Eh, I'm going to call the court house again tomorrow during lunch at school tomorrow and see if I can get them to tell me a real amount.
I would also like to add that last friday, me and my friend were STOPPED at a RED LIGHT (honestly doing nothing wrong, not revving or anything.) and a cop parked his car in front of me with his lights on and told me that I "looked like I was going to street race" so he was pissed and cussing then told me to go home. I didn't get a ticket that time because there really wasn't anything at all he could have given me one for... unless he had a tint meter with him, which he didn't... lol

I totally understand a police officer's motivations to get people to have tint that you can still sorta see through. Their lives are "on the line" every time they pull someone over, so if they can't see what's going on, expect guns to be drawn. 25% is dark enough that they normally won't bother you about since they can still sorta see through.

Well no I can't dodge them all, but most of the time they don't have the tint meter with them. It is definatly taking a chance but I will just wait to see how much my ticket is going to be, if it is a lot and I don't want to risk getting another one I will get the sides retinted 35% asap, if it doesn't cost a lot I will put it off for a while. I've had this tint for over a year and this is the first time I have been ticketed for it. I like the odds.
Just remove the 5% and show the officer. Get 35% in the front. I don'tunderstand why tint is needed on the front windows, itsmore dangerouswhen driving after dark. Less visibility = more chance of totalling something. I wouldn't even put 5% in the back of my truck. I'd rather be able to see out of my windows plznthx.
srsly, you're going to pay a fine, resort to never driving on a certain stretch of highway, AND risk getting another ticket in the future just so you can keep your over the top 5% tint?
