Well I just got back home. I wish that I could do a light tint on the windshield vs a 30... 30 WOULD be too dark, but having the sdes and back done helps a crapload with glare. I did have cop turn around in an intersection and get on my ass though. I was doing 37 in a 40, so I was like wth is up? He followed me 15 feet off my bumper for almost a quarter mile (I was doing like 34/40 at this point) then got along side me for 1/2 a mile, then got infront of me and brakechecked me down to 25/40 lol! I was like wtf? Then he took off like a bat out of hell. I was like damn I just got trolled by a cop. Good thing I had better brakes and tires :)

*edit* if he WAS giving me a ticket for the windows he would have had to actually stop me right? XD


Also, I do want to atleast try to get a medical form for it, to atleast reduce my chances of getting a ticket :/

you seem like a nice kid and all, and no disrespect, but you just sound like a little bitch worrying if your tints are too dark/illegal/need a medical form etc

more than half of the cars on the road are tinted, youre nothing special to the cops, theyre not going to solely target your car, unless you draw negative attention to yourself.

The town I live in has the worst cops I have heard of, and they stop people for ANYTHING. it got to the point that several years back the county basically forced them to get their own judge specifically for things like that,because they were flooding the courts with people going 1-2 miles over, going 3 mph under the speed limit, "obstruction of view" when it is a air freshener hanging from the mirror, things of that nature. Once I move here in the next year or two It will not be as NEAR as much of an issue. But when I have a legitimate issue that the tinting helps (unlike other people who claim they are sensitive to light just to get by with 20% or w/e) I fail to see how it makes me a bitch to be wanting to do it right.

And yeah I guess I do tend to draw some attention to myself (or it seems like I do anyway) when a cop is around. I have only been driving for 4 1/2 months now, and haven't got a ticket yet, but for some reason they make me so nervous that I start shaking lol! I can't afford to get a ticket till after April, otherwise my insurance will go from 800$ every 6 months to like 1,300.


So sorry I seem like I'm being a bitch , and were it not for the cops in this town I wouldn't worry about it too much, but yeah...
