I have 20% on the front and 5% on the back, tho I am going to change it to 35% in the front. Can you believe Arizona Highway Patrol pulled a tint meter on me?

what's wrong with having dark tints anyways? it protects us from harmful uv rays and stuff but i don't see the point why it's illegal on most states?

beacuse part of every 24 hours is night, it's dark at night, not being able to see out of your vehicle is a safety hazard

Also, its for the safety of the officer. Some punk could be pointing a gun at his head and wouldn't be able to see it.

Lucky! I asked some of my doctors and they wouldn't give me one. They said state cops have been after them lately for handing out so many. Just try to ask them for one saying you have sensitive eyes toward sunlight. Oh well.. a cop already made me scrape my dark tint off while standing in the middle of the road. I just went with clear yellow window film since it is very vague and says "No colored tint restrictions" for the state of michigan. I keep the tint laws in my glove box incase they pull me over I can shove it in their face.

I've been pulled over 10+ times for tint on my front windows in so-cal, until the last cop was an *** and wrote me up for it.
