I'm not sure what I have on my truck (a second vehicle, part fun, part errand-runner) but I can't see squat out the sides or back at night. It could be age but I don't think so because I can see fine out my less-tinted car.

When you’re in your car, you’re either driving or waiting on someone. There’s nothing else you really need to be doing in your car. There’s no mystery about what’s going on in your car.

Do you think people won’t know what you are doing in your car if your windows are tinted dark?

Every argument you make is poorly thought out. Your OP makes more and more sense the more you respond.

Why would I want to store that giant thing in my vehicles and have to put it up and take it down every day when I can just tint my windshield 70%? Why do you even care. You can see right through 70%. You can see through 25% too. Some weird mf’ers on this board.

Also, 14,000 posts and you joined in 2020 tacky ?? I think you have an unhealthy obsession with this forum. Go offline for a bit bud, you need it

personally, prefer to not give law enforcement a legitimate reason to pull me over.


I rode with an expired inspection sticker for a few days and was paranoid I'd get pulled over. Taking all sorts of backroads just to get to work and shite. I keep everything current now. I don't know how people ride with expired inspections, licenses, registration and dark as shite tint and not be paranoid about it. I'm not looking to give away my money on a ticket that could have been avoided.

Louisiana State boys gave me a $375 gift certificate for illegal tinted windows in 2009.
I was 1.5 miles from home, and he wouldn't allow me to peel it off.

frick this crooked state and all of their money grabbing road pirates!!

I will take the same approach to illegal window tint as with driving without insurance: vehicles should be impounded until the illegal part is cleared up.

Both are an active choice to say: “screw the law, I am superior to laws, rules, and standards.” Both should have the book thrown at them.

Disagree.

If you don't have insurance, your poor choice could affect me.

If I have 10% darker tint than legai, that isn't going to affect you.


And still isn't as dark as the cops limo tint...

The difference between 20 % and 5 % is significant. I'll never get another vehicle of mine with 20 %.

I do not recommend any tint on the front windshield if you opt for 5 % on all other windows.

Having my tint "uniform" is something as I prefer, as I do not like the look of darker tint on my back window, lighter tint on my rear windows, and even lighter tint on my front windows (if one is following Louisiana law).

My vehicle is registered in another state, however, I haven't had one encounter with any police officer regarding my tint. In other words, I've not been stopped strictly for my tint, prior to them knowing I don't have to follow the laws of Louisiana.

I’ll also add that I commonly work out of my truck on job sites with no shade and have a 4month old that appreciates the limo in the back.

I don’t need to prove it’s worth to anyone, I just like the privacy it offers and it makes my vehicles look less like a fish bowl and

So as far as you are concerned it’s all about you and not about following the law.

Same mindset as the population of Angola. Congratulations on your uplifting evolution of social norms.

I have 20 on my side windows. No issues.
If I get pulled over I’m telling the cop that it’s summer in Louisiana and 40% ain’t cutting it. Do what ya gotta do officer.
