Celica Forums General Discussion General pulled over for illegal tint

whats up yeah i just got pulled over by a pig today for illegal tint. i guess over here in VA, the darkest you can have is 35% which i have limo tint. Im not tryin to take my tint off so i was wondering if anyone has any suggestions to prevent tickets in the future...im really sick of this shit cause ive had numerous tickets for tint from my integra.. i was thinkin maybe puttin some tape on the top and edge of my windows and so when i get pulled over and the pigs want to check the tint, i just tell them that my windows are craked so they cant check it with their little device...so then they have no evidence...(no evidence = no ticket) but then the window looks like shit ...so what you guys think? any ideas please holla at cha boy!!!!!!!!!!!

i dont know about this one...

uh...drive w/ open windows..


at night time.. open your sunroof so light comes in and it looks lighter.

If you keep getting tickets or getting stopped by police then I think the intelligent thing to do is take off the limo tint or get as close as you can to legal

maybe yer right but once its on its on...i just gotta figure out a way to beat tha system...damn pigs!!

no tint = mo problem. and yes, pigs in va are bunch of rednecks...

Just fix your tint. Take it off. Unless you like paying money to the cops, fix the problem

drive w/ the windows down

get ur car really dirty with mud... then the mud will deture the cops... cause they wont know if its tinted or just dirty...

Is the 35% limit only on front windows, or all around? Most states allow you to have any sort of tint you want behind the front two windows. If that's the case in VA, just get 20% on the fronts and leave the back limo. 5% (limo) up front will ALWAYS get tickets... don't even try to find a way around it.

turn on ur dome light at night and when you see cops roll down ur window. of course you might be pulled over for the dome light on

I just pulled my driver side and passenger side tint off voluntary after having it for a year and a half.
I feel exposed while driving now

Its good to be exposed to the chicks if you have a nice ride.
And about the quote, wats the point of having tints if you have to roll down ur window??lol

my friend Jeff (Celimangts17) has 5% all around and he's yet to get pulled over...cops don't really care about that down here

I have illegal tint and im usually driving with the windows down or with the sunroof open to let more sun in

i have 35% on my drivers window and 30 the rest so if they check it it will seem legal. you may be thinking nah thats gay you got one different tinted window but believe me you cant notice a 5% change

Go to 35% it isn't that bad.

yes i feel exposed too when i drive around with no tint...in VA the darkest you can have is 35% all around but if you think about all they care about is the front windows since they cant check the percentage on the back windows...no proof = no ticket ...well theres gotta be a way of beating the system...everybody think hard guys and HoLLa aT Cha boY!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Actually, VA law is 35 in the rear, and 50 up front. Unless you're in an SUV. They're allowed 5 in the back. I've got 5 in the rear, and 35 up front. Haven't had any probs...yet.
