Coming soon to other Troops.
WAFB - Full Story
I have 5 % all the way around, but my vehicle is not registered in Louisiana.
Are state vehicles exempt from this law? I ask, because I see many police vehicles with 5 % all the way around.

GRAY, La. (WAFB) - Louisiana State Police Troop C announced it is launching an enforcement campaign targeting illegal dark window tint and license plate coverings on vehicles.
Troopers stated the campaign’s goal is to ensure compliance with state regulations and enhance public safety. Concerns about the dangers of excessively darkened windows, which impair visibility for drivers, pedestrians, and law enforcement officers, prompted this initiative. Additionally, in hit-and-run incidents, obscured license plates hinder vehicle identification, complicating investigations and delaying justice for victims.

I believe they are. So are the state vehicles the officials roll around in. If the car has exempt tags it would have to kill someone to get pulled over.

Nice to see law enforcement going after the big crime problems in this state
How about they go after all the obvious fake temp tags and uninsured drivers?

Yea my biggest issue with tint is the police can have blacked out windows and it’s somehow safe but others can’t.

Holden's denied me a break tag because of my window tint.
No I roll up with the windows down to get a break tag.

They don’t want you to see them texting and driving or sitting in their cars sleeping on duty

All my future vehicles will have 5 % tint. It makes a huge difference. And I am not speaking about privacy, although I do enjoy that benefit. I think it looks better (no differences in shade from front to back to rear), and the upper tier tint also has more reflective properties that help reduce the inside temperature of the vehicle when it bakes in the summer sun.

Nevermind the crime, drugs and thugery. Let's give them a ticket for dark tint!
Posted on 4/27/24 at 8:28 am to Will Cover
Agreed. If I get a $200 ticket every year for the rest of my life, so be it. I’m not driving around in a fish bowl.

I always wonder why they would not just pass a law where if you get pulled over, you have to roll your windows down.
If the driver does not roll windows down, it’s another citation on whatever ticket they’re getting.
Window tint is a phenomenal thing for South Louisiana vehicles. Refusing it for everyone is corporal punishment.

Window tint is just a reason to initiate a traffic stop.
To give them a reason to then look for illegal activity. Basically stop and frisk, but for vehicles.

I guess you could just pay a doctor and get a exemption

Except the only places they will enforce this is where soccer moms frequent.

Window tint enforcement in a state that allows law enforcement to order the driver from a vehicle in addition to concealed carry of handguns without a license is nothing more than a money grab.
Window tint also helps deter the theft of weapons from vehicles. You know, the kind of weapons used in most homicides.
Hail, hail Highway Patrol. Those six figure salaries to inspect tread tires on big rigs don’t pay themselves.

Why don’t they launch a safety campaign against murder?
