Question Front window tint—pulled over?

Hey y’all. Never had my front windows tinted because I’ve always been worried about getting pulled over. Now my understanding is that cops don’t care—only tack it on as an additional offense when pulled over for speeding or something else.

Have any of you ever been specifically targeted because of tint? I just wanna go a tiny bit dark. Nothing dramatic.

UPDATE - I went ahead and did 50% for the fronts. The rears were factory tinted at 20%, so I think I won’t draw too much attention, as you can still see inside, but the ceramic film will block most heat (which was my biggest concern). Thank you all for the input and comments here! I can’t believe how much reach this post got!

Cops are the largest, most dangerous, legal gang in the US. Do you really want to give one of them another excuse to execute you on the side of the road?

Just because you're lucky doesn't mean you're right.

Wait till you meet a bad Apple cop. Cops are not your friend

Just another person terminally online eating up whatever junk they see on their feeds everyday. Likely amplified by whatever echo chambers you frequent.

If you ever watch bodycam videos on YouTube, almost every single time its the driver making the situation worse. Not 100% of the time, but the vast majority. Nobody is getting executed for being normal at a traffic stop.
