I guess that you do not intend to drive at night, when you can't see much with that ridiculous tint. Get a pair of yellow driving glasses instead. And get your cataracts fixed.
AGAIN....you are missing the point Master Blaster....My tint...below the "Legal".... meaning LIGHTER than legal....is not ridiculous. I've seen ridiculously dark tint....and that is NOT ME. Legal in Texas is 25, I have 35. I do understand what you are trying to say....but it is only for SOME people....not all of Texas. Show me where on the post that the Tint hurt you??? LOL :teehee::teehee::teehee:

It has never been an issue for me when traveling all over the US and my fronts are always 20%. Only time it ever was an issue is when I couldn't get my truck to pass inspection in NC and had to remove the tint on the front windows when I moved from Ohio.

I'm not saying it can't be an issue, I've just never experienced in well over 200k miles of traveling.

Also if you get pulled over.......roll your window down. Put your hands on the steering wheel, help diffuse the situation.
Your suggestion to roll down the window is excellent. I was an EMT in my distant past and interacted frequently with law enforcement. One of the things most important to the them is to be able see the hands of the driver. Leave your hands on the wheel. Don’t anticipate a request for registration and be reaching into your glove compartment. That is the same action a bad guy takes when reaching for a firearm.
