$25 ticket, no threat of impound. And, as a matter of fact, I asked him if I got pulled over again for it, what would happen??? He said another ticket, but no impound.

At first, I had a hard time seeing, but I am used to it now. I would go with 5% if I were you.

Yeah, or at least at the end of the month. They're trying to pull in all of the revenue to pay for the ******* Taj Mahal looking city hall they just built. Our mayor is too busy out buying everyone lap dances at the strip club to contribute. The cop told me he had nothing else better to do than pull me over and give me the ticket. *******!

Cops dont write tickets for revenue. No matter if he writes one or 1000000 tickets a day he still gets his pittly salery. Hell most cops get pissed at the construction going on in town b/c that waste of money building could have been a raise. Not to mention 60-80% of the money from tickets goes to the state.

Not revenue for him, revenue for the city. If you ever role through NL, look at the 25 million dollar city hall that they are building and the 15 million dollar library they built before that. My taxes are ******* outrageous! They need every dollar and are getting it every way they can.

I always roll mine down on my truck (that has 15% all around) and a few times Ive had em say, roll your window up a bit (so they can look) Theres no way around it, depends what kinda mood the policeman is in.

Damn.. Pretty sure here in MN the law is 50% on the front (dr&ps) and the rear unless its a truck/SUV. 50% isnt even worth tinting! Also.. Our ticket price is usually a warning first depending on the officer's attitude then a ticket $150 or so.. They'll waive the ticket if you remove the tint before court date.

Man that sux, I got pulled over many times for my window tint, and a state cop even made me peal it off but never impounded. I can tell you that a cop impounded my car for the stereo to loud and mad me walk home...$400 later. FTP
