So I went to get a new inspection sticker and as I pulled up they turned me away for my window tint being 30%. I purchased my truck brand new from the dealer with this tint on it. Are there places in BR that are more lenient than others? Or am I better off taking the tint off?

I got the spiel about the line on the windshield it can't go below. Always some new damn law that they pretend to care about.

Don't some dealers do inspections? Bet your dealer would pass it.

They're really strict right now with cracks in windshield. I have one that only about six inches long that's about center of the windshield but on the driver's side. Not obstructing my view at all. The first 2 places turned me down but the third let me slide. He said that's what they're looking for right now. I would think if you bring it to more you'll get someone who will overlook it. It seems none of them are just slapping the sticker on it anymore though which really sucks.

In Dallas, Illegals were producing counterfeit inspection stickers and tag stickers. One of my neighbors told me he could get them. Same guy offered to fix my cable so I got everything available too. They had what they called a " Candy Store" in apartments down the road. You could get bear, cigs. snacks, Cokes, etc. tax free there. Only in America.

That or in LP. They don't seem to care too much either.

I had one up until about 2 years ago. I got tired of screwing with it because my windows are blacked out.

I just took my inspection sticker off.

I haven't gotten a ticket for it yet in 2 years. And even if I do, I will just pay it and still not get a sticker. I honestly don't see what the point of getting them anymore is

There's never been a point. It's just an arbitrary way of taxation.

Someone proposed a bill this year to get rid of them, but of course the legislature deemed we weren't ready.

Roll down your windows & pull the fuse.

Windows aren't a P/F requirement
