Damn that sucks. Always thought tinting the front windows was legal, but not if it's the windshield. Change in law again?

Well, this thread proves that everything is legal until you get caught

^Like I said: Everything's legal until you get caught.
Then it just depends on the cop. If he's cool, he'll just give you a warning. If he's a douche, he'll write a ticket. If the he's the biggest asshole alive, he'll give you a ticket, search you, and your car. Looks like ID got a ticket for his tints, not the missing plate.

I thought you couldn't have the front two windows darker than 35%. Atleast that's what it was when I got my rear windows done.

However, you can only "just pay the ticket" if he/she marked it as "non-correctable". If it is correctable, you must correct it and show proof of the correction to get it signed off. Technically the law is that you have to have a front license plate AND it has to be centered. As noted, there is clearly room for law enforcement to be tough or lenient as they wish about enforcing the details.
