The Law and Tinted Vehicles

[Strugglerzinc]

What this really means is tint meters not here yet.

What this really means is tint meters not here yet.

they gonna have voluntary stops soon where you can have the test your tint with the correct device, so you will know if your tint is legal or not

[zoom rader]

Always request that they do and show you a zero calibration before they test your tint

[MG Man]

I curious about cars that are sold with OEM 'black-out' glass. Lots of those euros have pitch black rear back glass; actual tinted glass, not clear with film that can be pulled off....would be interesting to see how those are handled

This is a good step.
Would help build buy in from the public.

Tint shops doing testing after installation, how would you know the tint legal ?

They should start that and provide you with a readout.

[shake d livin wake d dead]

There is an exemption form going around. Employer need to fill out part of it

[sMASH]

Dear sir/madam
Plz excuse my employee for light tint today because he was feeling sick.

How de France ur employer gonna have provisions in the law to excuse u for dark tint? Lol.

That exception should only be via a letter from the transport commish.

I don't think it make sense.

I think MNS people stand to benefit from this
...shrugs shoulders

Question...mowt sent out a memo stating that there is a 3 month grace period for drivers to get their vehicles in order. Are there places carrying tint meters? This is the only way we can get sheit in order

Dis de Gray car you been driving around ?

[Dizzy28]

Last week on Facebook a tint place advertised they have the tint meter so you can get your tint measured. One in central, but can't remember the name now.

Under the proposed law would smart tint / adjustable tint be allowed.

Would eventually be treated the same as cars with OEM fog lights, you would have a certificate stating that your privacy glass is OEM. Some cars also have window curtains from the factory and this would be treated the same way.

[toyota2nr]

But how would they treat window curtains? It’s not like actual tint

[ProtonPowder]

in the road traffic act you cant have any curtain or item to block the view inside the vehicle, and window curtains are such an item

cars that come with it oem would have to get a certification from the dealer vouching for it, just like fog lights

but that would probably come months later when some old S-class on its 7th owner get pulled over for broken lights and get ticketed for that too, starting the battle

Imo, LO should have invited the public to visit an office convenient to them and have their tints checked out using meters which are being used by LO. Next thing you go by a normal man and his meter say you good but LO says otherwise, what you gonna do? Are you getting a print out stating xyz is the case(if you go private)???

[gastly369]

Actually I ordered one and planned to do that for customers...may or may not be useful but better than nothing

without knowing about tint except getting it done a couple times, when i ask what grade was told was 35%. so i assumed all, or most tint would be graded. is that not so?

i know very well between brands u might get some variance but that should not be too wildly off.

in any event, i think LO needs to step up, or police, and do a lil clinic demo vid of how they test the tint on windows, with some vehicles to show how the grading is according to their meters.

[gastly369]

Also I hope the shops that bring in tint meters are certified and calibrated stuff as well and not those cheapo Chinese things

[sMASH]

i would be satisfied that the tint they get, be in line with the grading the meters the lo uses.

[j.o.e]

The most important question is how rigid they will be. Standard new car glass is UV treated which can register as a light tint (let’s say 97% for argument sake ) when you apply a 35% tint the meter is not going to read 35% but darker ....... will this be a problem ?

[shake d livin wake d dead]

This going and turn out to be one bullsheit law with all kinda bachannal...but hey, money affi make

Exactly. Thats why tint shops should at least do a test on the actual vehicle... my Legacy had stock privacy glass in the rear windows (that was rather dark) and UV protection in the front doors and windscreen.
