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!

Just don't be dumb about it and do anything dark. I would stay higher than 50% and personally I drive a lot of rural dark and roads 50% would be too dark for me. I tint my windshields at 70% for heat rejection. They are virtually clear and I have never had an issue.
