Speeding ticket is the right law
Tint Law = bullshit - another way to suck citizens blood and hard working moneys. If you want to kill somebody you will do it. Normal Peoples don't go and waste their moneys to get their window tinted then go and kill somebody. |

"Normal Peoples" don't go around killing folks, period.
Watch the cop car camera videos on Tru TV for a while. You can't tell what people may do. |

I tend to agree, though a lot of them seem pretty normal. Society frowns on that kind of behavior, at any rate.

if you want to save your 'hard working moneys' (as you put it) don't put ridiculous tint on your car and don't break the law |

I'm starting to think that the high fines are so that ppl won't retint. When I got my back 3 done, the shop was doing driver and passenger windows left and right. They said they remove and reapply all the time. Maybe if they layered the fine like cellphones and seatbelts, that fine'd be cut in half. That's what I'd tell the judge, might agree and reduce your fine.

Well, duh. Paying hard working money to outfit your car and make yourself look like a dealer and then wondering why you get a ticket when the law is there to protect officers from people transporting illegal substances that don't like getting pulled over is just silly. It's not just the gangsta wannabes either, a lot of people make very expensive mods to trucks that they never take off road for that monster truck look and then get pissed when they can't pass inspection. LoL |

In the county in which I live window tint tickets that get faught in court often get dropped, especially if the person who got the ticket is willing to remove the tint.

At Zaphod's post...
When the guy pulled me over he took my license and registration, and then proceeded to walk around my car and look in the windows. After he gave me the ticket I asked if I had to take all the tint off and he said, which surprised me by the way since up here we have some stereo and sub laws too, "No you only have to remove the front windows. Normally you'd have to remove it all, but I noticed you have some nice SUBS (he said subs) back there. You shouldn't really have to worry about anyone wanting to steal them around here though." Fucked up man...My tint in the back was darker than the front and isn't that where most of my "illegal substances" or weapons would be sitting were I to have them? It's just weird. Oh yeah and I was going 80mph in a 65, but I think I crossed jurisdictions right as I sped up so he couldn't get me on that.

similar in Illinois. You can go as dark as you want in the rear as long as there is none on the front side windows, but they just modified the law to allow some tint on all windows (except windshield) as long as it meets certain requirements.

Let me explain to you how democracy works: people vote other people to represent them in some kind of legislative body. Those people then make laws, because we put them there and paid them to do just that... I fully agree that there are silly laws and there are good laws, but I guess they are not the same in everyone's view... What can I say, life is not always easy in a civilized society

Heck depending on the amount of time left on officer's shift, they may rather not even want to know ;) The concern is that they can't see the weapon that the driver is pulling on them as they approach. It's about safety, not privacy. And when you think about it, it's for your safety as well. After all, why make a man carrying a loaded weapon edgy and nervous? |

It's not about safety, its about privacy and health. Like I said, if you don't feel safe coming up to my window, do a felony stop. Pulling me over on the side of the freeway is retarded anyway - speaking of TruTV, how many times watching cop shows have you seen someone get rear ended pulled over by a cop on the side of the freeway? It should be standard procedure to pull off the freeway at the next exit, get out, put your hands on the car, and wait for the cop. I haven't even touched on being able to keep something in my car without some thief being able to see it and want to steal it. |
