Probably won't be long before it hits PA too.
Brad in reguards to your comment: I had 15% all around when I lived in the city, got one ticket for it in the burbs, but it was more of a "geografical" (sp) ticket since these cops don't like anybody from the city.
When I moved to the burbs, I said I'd re-tint the windows if I got a ticket, and I did, but not in my town, about 4 towns over, a poorer town and the ticket was more than the other one I got.
Bottom line, city cops don't give a shit about tinted windows, they have much better things to do

I agree, I got pulled over by a damned trooper.
Nothing better for him to do I think...

And Redog, I have 30-15 right now. I may go up to 50 once this ordeal is over, if I don't wind up getting out of it. But 50-15 will look wierd. But then again, 100-15 looks plain stupid, so idk...

fyi.. in ohio at least - if a police officer pulls you over because of your tints ie: Thats the whole reason the cop pulled you over. then he/she technically cant do anything about it. You have to have a moving violation in order for them to say anything about the tint. so if you have been pulled over and gotten a ticket or told to remove tint and thats the only thing that the cop pulled you over for... u take it to court- you win! (was talking to the owner of a local tinting shop about it)

I have 35% tint and pulled over but not because of the tint cause of speeding, so my guess is if you live in NY have just about 35% tint.

35 is what mine read on the tint meter.
35 is too dark, the only seemingly safe bet in this state seems to be 50 or 70...

The rules are different everywhere you go. Here a tint violation is a primary offense and not a secondary one, therefore the cops here unfortunately can pull you over for tint alone.
