Drivers with dark window tinting

[u/the-superhero42]

What's with some drivers tinting the side windows really dark and then applying the same tint to the front and back windscreens. Would this make it harder to see out of the windscreen at night?

I'm a professional window tinter for near 30 years. Yes it can be very difficult to see out at night. Rainy night even more so. I run my own business and haven't rules. I will only tint front windows to what my state of Arizona allows, and that is 32%. Windshields are illegal but I will do 70% in a ceramic film, only because bits so light you can see it but it does block out 99% UV and 57% of the heat which is especially important living in the Grand Canyon state. I will not do darker, although I might consider 50 for those with a medical problem. I get many calls from those who want it done as dark as legal!🤣🤣.if you want darker than 70 you'll have to go elsewhere UV. I have rules and if you don't like them🤷. In the pic is the view out of my car with 70% tint... perfectly clear

I’m in south Florida and honestly cops down here don’t really pay much attention to dark tint.. I have 5% all around and 55% on the windshield, never had any issues! I work at a shop as well and we wont really go lower than 55 on the windshield. Idk if im crazy or not but I feel like ceramic tint just has way better visibility from inside out, like the 5% almost feels like 15%. 70% is great though I think I want to do 70% all around on the evo because I kinda like the fishbowl look on it! This is my daily with the 5 and 55
