Jeez. I was told by my driving instructor back when I got my license that you're allowed up to 10 over. That's what I drive when I'm in front of cops or around them and I've NEVER been pulled over for speeding. |

That's still within the realm of the 5% acceptable variance set by the government.

you can dispute it on ohio if they pull you over for tint only. you have to have a moving violation in order to do anything about the tint

i did go to court with it and found out that 1 the radar wasnt calibrated since 2008, and it was December 2009, and 2 the judge said he drives 5 over the speed limit, and i got a warning.

i never knew you could dispute a tint ticket in ohio if they just pull you over for tint. How would you dispute it, just say its of legal limit?

The price of the ticket will vary by state. My first one was $94 and then I think they jumped to $115...I had 3 of them in total. I guess the biggest issue would be that particular cop looking for you again. 2 of mine were from the same cop. He gave me a fix-it the first time and the second time he just wrote me a ticket. If it wasn't anywhere in your local area, I'd just say to pay the ticket and go about your way.

In MI tint tickets are about $90. We got pulled over for it on Saturday! Just showed him my prescription and he was like "Oh, ok. You know you never know unless you check. Car looks awesome though!"

Found out the ticket will be $175 if I don't get my windows fixed.
