well... i got pulled over

[97LaserRed]

I got pulled over in bethal park for having window tint only on my front windows. He said my back is fine. Anybody have any advice on how I can get out of it and keep my tint. I'm keeping it no matter what. I just wanna try n get outta the fine. It was $108. I'm pissed.

[INSANELY CRAZY]

what percent is it??? might as well just pay the fine if you dont wanna take it off. there really isnt anything you can do to get outta a tint fine unless you have someone in your family that has eye issues and there doctor can write you a slip saying the tint is needed while you drive them around.

[SonofaBish]

You used to be able to fight it..... but i'm thinking i saw somewhere that they recently changed the law so that you can't have anything stuck on your window that isn't factory installed.....

[03 OW SVT]

Might as well just pay the fine. Not much you can do. I have been busted several times for tint and they have told me they would drop the fine if removed. Not gonna happen.

I got pulled over in peters twp. years ago in my old fox for tint and he said if i brought the car in without the tint on to the municipal building they would drop it, but I never did and didnt have to pay anything..

whoa time out...you have your car out? i thought you put her away for the winter? or was it in the Z?

[97LaserRed]

It was my Z. Its 15%

I got hit in North Park this summer. I had the tint on for less than 2 hours..... I $hit you not! I tried to fight the ticket with the premise Ziebart told me the percentage of tint was legal. The magistrate wasn't having any of it! He said Ziebart can put illegal tint on but it was my responsibly to check if it was legal. He however said if the tint had been removed he would have let me off with a warning. I suggest just paying the fine and moving on!

[scott5]

Just pay it, not worth the hassle of trying to fight it..
Anything on the front two windows is illegal

only thing that sucks is i got pulled over in front of my work and he said if he sees me agian he will pull me over again.

i drive past this cop everyday on my way to work for 2 years and i have my windows tinted for 2 years as well. idk why he decides to pull me over now.

[HidalgoGT]

Roll them down when you go past him. Maybe he is just jealous of ur sixer being able to smoke his cruiser.

You know what just struck me, I remember you from Irwin one night. I was with the kid with the red jetta, you pulled in in your truck, there was like a silver dodge stealth and a couple other cars there...no shit....it was a LONG time ago though...atleast 2 years.

[97LaserRed]

well it really sucks for me because how many black 300zx with tint do you see? let alone any 300zx?

Ouch. something about that doesn't seem legal tho

If we're not allowed to profile people of certain races/genders/religion, I'm not sure why they're allowed to profile a car to having its front windows tinted... even if they're down.

Just for arguments sake.. The same as a person who looks like a muslim extremist will be upset if he is 'randomly' chosen for a security search at the airport, and we have to respect that - I believe that it is fair to extend that same type of courtesy to a car with window tint. If the front windows are down while the car in question is to be pulled over, I see absolutely no reason for the violation. The window tint is only applicable when the windows are up/closed.

unfortunately.... it seems like more of a revenue citation than anything. I understand that dark windows can put the officer's life at risk, however I can take a can of paint to all of my other windows and that would be much more dangerous, as they wouldn't be able to see what was going on inside the car until they were right on top of the window (and by then it might be too late).



An interesting idea that would allow window tint would be licensed and legalized tinting registration through the police department. We have all kinds of technologies that can detect anything used in an explosive, and surely if there were any drug use in the car, a dog could sniff it out or something. Say $15 a year per vehicle to search & certify the car isn't being used for narcotics or any other controlled substances & you can have tint. The state would make wayyyy more money & people would be happier as well (at least I would be! $15 for piece of mind?!?! hell yeah).

You'd think that with all of the retarded taxes that they're implementing, someone would have thought of that (or something similar). Unfortunately politicians seem to be experts on absolutely nothing other than public speaking.

my thoughts exactly.

I personally think they should allow darker tint (i think the law is 70%?) i have 22% and i have no problems with vision at night or dusk at all, but i do get A LOT of looks from the boys in blue. I don't think mine is too dark, my brother has 5% and thats WAY too dark, although it looks sick as H3LL. i think 22% should be allowed.
