armin922 Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 My bro got a ticket from Perry Township police for having dark window tint. Its not really dark (35%) at all. I swear, they should have better things to do than single someone out for tint. There are so many cars ive seen out there with even darker tint and i bet they didnt even get a ticket. But Perry Pigs are a**holes as well. But are they allowed to pull you over for that? Or do they have to have another reason to pull u over besides window tint? I got a ticket a while back from Worthington for tint (35%) and my ticket was only 40 bucks. My bros was 110. Could he fight it? I just think that they should have better things to do than to get someone for window tint. Theres people out there thats getting there cars broken into, vandalism, etc and they have to give people tickets for tint?????????BULLSH*T!!!!!!!!!I just hate certain cops PERIOD......

wnaplay1647545503 Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Kind of a broad generalization. Would you hate cops if they saved someone in your family from getting raped or killed. Or just because your bro received a ticket from one because he was in fact breaking the law? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Blackout GT Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 the reason they pull you over is a probable cause to find something else... plus if its a small town they dont have anything else to do... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
armin922 Posted January 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 I thought you have to give a cop another reason to pull you over for something like that. Such as speeding, brake light out, etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttemper Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 nope, just like blackout said.. probable cause. if you didnt want to get a ticket for window tint, dont fucking tint your windows. simple as that. if you cant accept the fact that they're just doing there job, you're a fucking dumbass.

Billy Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 I thought 35% was legal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copperhead Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 I thought 35% was legal? No darker than 50% is legal in Ohio on side and rear windows on a car. Windshield is allowed a 5 or 6 inch strip at the top. A truck is allowed any amount of tint on the REAR glass. Having too dark of tint is enough reason to pull you over here, and in central ohio many cops will use that as a reason to pull you over in hopes of finding something else illegal.

nurkvinny Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 35 is illegal except on the back window. I assume whoever had the tint installed knew 35 was illegal. Their problem. EDIT. Beat me to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
armin922 Posted January 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 so i can get the back windows as dark as i want and the 2 front has to be 50%? And i cant get shit for that? I was comparing my back window tint windows to my dads SUV and his are like 15% and maybe even less. But it came stock like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex1647545498 Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Stock tint is legal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
armin922 Posted February 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 im gettin it taken all off and redoing it. I just want tint but for it to be legal cuz now that i think of it $100 ticket for tint is not worth it. Im planning on gettin 50% for the 2 front windows (drivers/passengers) and like 15% in the back windows (just like how a stock SUV or Van would be out of the dealership). Now is that legal?

McGraw Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 I was told the strip was legal on the windshield, 5 inches, and front windows have to be 50% .... any windows behind the driver and passenger door have to be at 35%. This is all of course blown out of the water I guess for SUV's and Trucks because the law specifically states 'cars' ... you'l lget hasseled for it , but with a lawyer there is a good chance to get away with it. That's how I understand it, correct me where I'm wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If his tint was dark enough to be illegal, then he deserved the ticket. What the fuck is so hard to understand about that?

dragknee66 Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 So you hate cops because your brother broke the law, and got caught. Sounds like he got what he deserved. Dark window tint means I might come to your car door with my gun in hand, it only seems safe for law enforcement to enforce these laws to me.

Jelloman4571647545499 Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 the law is there so that police can see what is going on inside without risking their lives when stopping you for a violation. like people pulling guns. Damn those cops for wanting to live. just fuck them . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceGhost Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 roll the windows down when he stops you SO he has to tell you to roll them up? ALL tint is bad in Ohio, simple math.... Factory tint on every winow in you car = 3-7% 50% - 3 to 7% = 47 to 43% Law 50% Simple.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
armin922 Posted February 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 alright, so now i know why cops do what they do. Also, he did roll his window down when the cop came but didnt work. So now, i dont really have a reason to hate cops. We all take chances (those of us that have illegal tint) when we buy the darker tint (looks good) but will soon enough get cited. Know i know why cops pull us over for dark tint. But i was jw....if its illegal here in Ohio or maybe just the city? Why do they sell the darker tint to regular people? I know that if its a state vehicle or whatever is in those lines they can have it if they choose but why sell it to the public if they know its illegal?

El Karacho1647545492 Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 inb4thaban. Don't break the law, don't pay the consequence. If you want to make it complicated, you could call it the transitive property of equality. However, its actually one of those things you're supposed to inherently know, such as how fish routinely avoid non-aquatic environments. Also, never say you hate "the police". Say you hate "certain" police. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skinner Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 Because it makes them money? Also they will tell you the tint they are putting on is illegal and they are not responable if you get a ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
