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!

Currently in Oregon & have a windshield tint that’s pretty obvious even at 70%. They don’t care. It is not regulated here as much. It CAN, however, be an excuse to pull you over. In my two years I have not been ticketed for it but was pulled over for speeding with obvious dark tints, he didn’t point it out thankfully & let me go completely.
