Cheech Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 Got nailed this morning by OSHP for tint on front windows and too far down on windshield, and for tinted plate cover on the back AND no front plate....Already peeled the window tint off, gotta get the windshield tint professionally trimmed, got the plate cover off and got the front plate mounted up....I'm going to take pics of it, and try to have a cop? inspect it and make sure its all legal and sign the pics...THEN go tell the judge how the car came from florida and I bought it that way and its all legal now....which is 100% truth. Did you buy the car from Florida and are driving it up here for the first time? If so, you have exigent circumstances and you can easily get off the hook. If the car has been in Ohio for a while, registered to you with a Ohio address, Ohio plates, etc, then using this defense will only serve to piss the judge off.It seems to me like you have more than enough to go on to get a lot of these thrown out like the lack of a tint test, so the only thing you may get dinged on is the failure to display for the front plate, and even then if you show the prosecutor you have it fixed, it's possible that might be plead down.Welcome to the Ohio Revenue Service.

warpspeed Posted September 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 (edited) na i'v had it for a year. irregardlous of the tint test, the ws banner was 1" below the as1 marks. It is definitly a NO-POINT violation.....so im thinking about just paying it and be down with it.EDIT:I called the local SHP post and they said take pictures, go to court, plead no contest, and tell the judge my story how I didn't realize i had equipment violations and I went straight home and corrected them. they said more than likely the judge would waive atleast some of the charges Edited September 29, 2010 by warpspeed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmh_sprint Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 I got popped by a Kenton City boy this morning at 6:30 on my way to Detroit. I about shit when he told me that is what he pulled me over for (20% all around). I guess he didn't care about the tinted rear plate cover and no plate on the front. I have passed so many cops State, County and local since I got the new car in February without a second look. As he was walking away after giving me the ticket he said pay the fine and to remove the tint to which I chuckled. FTP! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe because the place is a shithole (or so I've heard) that the police are bigger assholes there. Maybe the majority of people there that have had their windows tinted are gangsta, thugs, and hooligans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the majority of people there that have had their windows tinted are gangsta, thugs, and hooligans. Metro Detroit police, Metro Flint police, and other bad city police forces don't give two shits about tinted windows and other vehicular bullshit up here. When you have multiple homicides, rapes, etc every night in a city that can't even afford to keep the lights on, shit like that is overlooked. This doesn't include the snooty, upscale areas like Royal Oak, Farmington Hills, etc though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the majority of people there that have had their windows tinted are gangsta, thugs, and hooligans. It was on my way to Detroit. Kenton in halfway between Marysville and Findlay. Cop had the look of being fresh out of school. Guess he is going to make his name writing tickets for tint rather than real crimes. I fully admit my care is illegal in several aspects but never expected to be pulled over just for the tint. Oh well no big deal, just thought I'd share my Wednesday morning adventure.

idodishez Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 Got a tint ticket last week. In my 41 years on earth, and probably 25 tickets before i was even 18, I've never gotten a tint ticket. I drove a Beemer w 5% tint all around for years. Never a peep from popo. But at 41 years old, driving a respectable late model grand Prix, I get a tint ticket. (5% all around w tinted tails and reverse bar too). He actuallyPulled out a tint meter. Never even knew it existed. (showed mine at 8%) I AM happy he didnt give me a ticket for the 80 mph he clocked me at though:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
