after my math final i left school and made a late stop at a sign...when i looked up the cops were on the other side of the road...didn't seem they cared, so i drove off and they turned behind me...didn't think anything of it until i saw those Damn LIGHTS...rolled down my window and he told me to cross the intersection and pull into a parking lot. While he was taking my info he asked me if i could roll up my window because it looked a little to dark. The other cop came to my window and measured the tint. They found out that my tint is 3% and wrote me the ticket for my tint and passing the stop sign by a few feet... my total is $350... Then he tells me that legal window tint is anything Above 25%... Lastly he tells me that the main reason for the ticket was due to the tint, but they didn't want to stop me just because of that "we didn't want to be mean."
throughout the whole process i was calm about it and didn't over react since i decided to get the tint.
ive had my tint since the beginning of summer and this is the first time any authorities say anything about it...

I think a cop would pull you over for illegal tint where I go to school. My celica came with all of the windows tinted and I have been kind of paranoid about getting pulled over for it but it isn't to dark. I got pulled over for another reason at like 1 in the morning and he didn't catch the window tint. It also helps that the lady I bought the car from can get any of tint issues worked out because of her job!

If its a high school you go to thats like a hot spot for cos. I just finished high school last year, and on the street where everyone used to park there was probably 7 to 10 cars that were tinted out, and the cops would always roll by trying to find kids driving off in their cars cause they knew there was someone doing something illegal around there, I think a few guys actually got caught with tint there too.. Just park away from it if thats how it is at your school, cause I did that and I haven't been caught. Being paranoid about it is good, I'm pretty paranoid with cops and tint and i haven't been caught. If its night and i see a cop I'll put my screen on and have the leds on my floor lit up, and roll the windows down too if possible so I don't get pulled over, seems to work for me...
