Well I just left my house and was on my way to work. I was at a light and seen this cop going in the other direction... well my light turns green and turn, well 2 seconds later he comes flying up on my ass and pulls me over...... for nothing stupidier than my window tint!!!! It took him 40 mintues to fill out the damn paper work. Then i couldnt find my insurance card, so i have to go to court to prove i have insurance. And i have 5 days to get the tint off, and to the dmv to get the car inspected.... so now i will be spending my birthday running around to get this taken care of.... what a start to a day!!!
 
devil and i still have you beat we have the chance to go to jail for a year pay a 2,500 fine and get a suspended liscence for 6 month. all for 88 ijn a 65

oh and 2 years ago i got pulled over for a plate cover -50 fine, exhaust - 180 fine, tint 180 fine and speeding 70 in a 50 - 285 fine.
 
well that sucks... sorry to hear about this.
What is your law and what are your windows tinted at?
We have some cities around here we avoid due to how strict they are witht he state law of 50%.
wow, they give you five days to remove the tint?
 
Well he didnt say i had to pay a fine. I guess i just have to pay to get the tint off, and pay whatever it costs to get the car inspected...or maybe i just bring them the receipt from the tint shop to prove...i have no idea... i never had to do this before... just some young cop trying to do his job. I've been pulled over before for speeding and never once did they question my tint. I dont see what the big deal is anyways... its not like its THAT dark, you can still see the shadows of the people in it... hahahhahahahah

Sorry to hear about your ticket. i guess you live in NJ??

i got a ticket for no front plate this morning. =(

fuggin 81 dollar fine.
 
hahah sept of 03 me and brian ( digginyellowp5) were coming back from a meet in VA, and we were flying!!! down 95... we were going over 100. we went around this turn and slowed down a bit, well in VA they like to stand on the side of the road and walk out into traffice to pull you over!! well brian was in front of me and slammed his brakes on, i hit mine and had to go onto the shoulder a little bit to avoid hitting him, the cop pointed and brian to pull him over, then looked over at me, was like.. yea you too... i was so mad... its was like 85 in 65 or something. So the whole rest of the trip back to de/pa, we had to stay behind tractor trailers to we wouldnt speed again!! then a month later i got into an accident...some guy switched lanes right into my whole drivers side...had 3k in damage.


as for the laws in DE, my car is tinted all the way around including eyebrow. i think its 30 or 35%. In de, you cant have tint on your front two windows or the eyebrow, i belive.

But the place i got it done at told me it was illegal, but if i got a ticket, take it back to them, they would take it off for free, and if i wanted it back on, after i proved i got it off, they would charge me 50 bucks to put it back on.

DMV from DE:
http://www.dmv.de.gov/forms/driver_serv_forms/pdfs/dr_frm_manual.pdf

Tinted Windows - Window tint is prohibited on the front windshield below the top few
inches of the windshield (specifically not below the ASI masking on the windshield), and on the left and right driver side windows. Tint material also may not be installed over any lights or the vehicles license plate.

Why thank you for that insight!!! thats what i thought it was. its a bunch of crap i think. Well i got away with for over 2 years...i guess i cant complain.

Lisa:

Girl ive been mad busy, i moved out and bought my own place, and i didnt have a computer for a while.. how are things going for you. you still thinking about selling the car? i want to sell mine too...lol
 
I got a ticket last week for running a redlight turn arrow at 2:35am. Bastard cop was trying to get me for a DUI. For christ's sake... it was 2:35am and ot a car on the road!!!

well time to go to court and plead guilty with an excuse!
 
cops can be gay... I got a ticket not in my car on my motocycle I was going 5mph over the speed limit. the fine was not big but my mom fliped out.
 
My brother got pulled over for not stopping entirely at a stop sign. Where was my brother when he got pulled over...in the garage.

Yea i just bought a condo a few months back, so i am trying to save money and do some work to it... im not putting any more money into that car, unless its neccessary repairs...i think i am done with all of that.
 
im hoping if i get pulled over the "it was on the car when i bought it" will work

although my car didnt come tinted, i have the window sticker in my glove box stating that it came with "factory tinted windows"

Wisconsin(especially GB) isnt as picky as your more populous states, there is very little crime here, i can't remember the last time I even locked my side garage door, nobody up here does
