I got pulled over today (the first time in my life, also I had just pulled into my driveway) I was getting out of my car and the blues went on. The cop got out and said he thinks my window tint is in violation...The car came from the dealer like that ,I did not add it. It was 4:40 pm...so it was almost dark out. He put a meter up to the glass and it said it was too dark. He then asked for lic. and registration...he came back and told me to have the tint removed...I said ok...then he handed me a $250.00 Ticket.
Can you be pulled over for that?
Does this affect my insurance?
How accurate are these meters at nighttime conditions?
He said I have 20 days to appeal it, which I likely will. After I got in my house I called the dealer...the cop said it was illegal for them to sell it like that..The dealer said they will remove it and probably pay the fine.Should I go ahead with the appeal...or just let the dealer pay it?
Thanks,
TJ
