Window Tint Too Dark?

ya... ya dont say. the only thing I'm going to say about this- a large reason for tint laws is because officers in big cities were getting shot when they walked up to the window because they could not see as the occupant reached for his gun. 2- I will agree 5% is way to dark at night, visibility to your sides and rear is compromised. 20% is nearly perfect. you cant really see through the car with much detail, but just enough. it still defiantly looks tinted and blocks some sun during the day. /chiming out on this one

So much hostility over window tint. Everybody breaks a law at some point. Whether it's speeding or simply having your music too loud. It's not like you killed someone. I don't think tinted windows are a good reason to give someone a ticket. There are way worse things than that. I could understand if you were in a high crime area it being unsafe, but if not, find a better reason to pull someone over.

I understand with the gun thing...But when you have a 1999 and your dash is falling apart and you put a $1,000+ in your stereo system. You want your car to be blocked from as much sunlight as possible. Also not have people be able to see into your car and see you have a $1,000 head unit in your car and steal it. I don't have the tint to hide guns or anything in that matter from cops. I have it to keep my cars interior nice and keep what I have put into it there and not have some REAL CRIMINAL steal the good hard earned money into it.
