Man, my wife got pulled over yesterday for the tint. I have my front windows matched with the rear. I think they went with 20%. Well an Alabama state trooper pulled her over yesterday just for that. She wasnt speeding or anything. She got a ticket for 123.00. Or we can remove the tint and take it to court so they can verify. Since Im moving this summer and I love the way my truck looks with the tint, Im going to take my chances and pay the ticket and leave the tint on. We'll see how that goes.

 

Is this considered a moving violation in AL? If so, your wife might get points on her license.

 

It is. One point. First one for her. Im still going to risk it. Ive had tint on all my vehicles. Always the same dark tint and this is the first time We have gotten pulled over for it. F***ers!!!

 

That blows. You might want to check with your insurance to see if it will raise your rates, though I doubt it with her excellent record.

 

Damn, that scares me as I have a beer or two on occasions during/after a nice round of golf. Mine is only at 25% overall all, but it looks darker with the vent visors and rear tinted dark. Damn, makes me want to remove mine. I dont mind the tint ticket, but if beer were involved it may be much worse!

 

You guys have to realy becareful. It looks like the more slower an area is the more chance of getting a ticket. I live in Los Angeles so most people out here have teh tints. i've been pulled over before for myother tints but its usually when I go down to the quiter gramma/grampa eighborhoods.
Remember also, that you got teh ticket close to teh end of the month. Staties always have a quota to fill!

 

You know, that explains it. About being the end of the month. Still pisses me off. If my insursnce raises my rates for a tint ticket I will drop them. I have been with them for over 10 years. Never a claim nor accident.

 

I have been pulled over twice for the tint. Only got 1 ticket. Thank goodness it isn't a moving violation here in Florida. Both timesit has been on the Interstate. Trooper said they pull over all dark tinted cars due to Amber Alerts and such. He put the meter on mine and the fronts were at 7%. I think having a black tahoe all blacked out makes me a target.

 

I have the legal on my fronts, what ever % that is. On a black Tahoe, it looks dark but it's legal.

 

What is the legal limit % on your fronts in your state? What % do you have on? To stay legal at 35% you would have to have 50% aftermarket tint applied over the factory 70% to get the 35%????
