Sparky Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 Pigs suck!!!!!!Highway patrol had me for mine and giv me thirty quid fine and told me to take them out. When i was sat in the car with him he also noticed my blue sidelights because i left em on (wat a twat!!)Anyway paid the fine and didnt bother removing the tints.A few months go by and i pass the same copper (with both my front windows down) and he still followed me and told me to roll my windows up!!!!!He then went through everything again and tested my windows which he done last time (I dont think the stupid twat recognised me or my car!!!!)He then gave me a referral with meant i had to romove them within 7 days i think. Anyway i took them out then but i wasnt very happy!!!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Enzo Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 it was braught into force maybe last year or the year before, after some motorcyclist was killed when a guy turned into his blind spot, the rear windows can be as dark as you like but the fronts need to be a certain vlt.still see loads of hi end ranger rovers and x5s that dont get tugged though Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nanglebadger Posted March 17, 2006 Share Posted March 17, 2006 Motorcycle visors have to be clear (my dads a biker), im not sayin people dont put smoked ones on but by law they're meant to be clear for safer night time riding blah blah blah which means they have to wear sunglasses durin a sunny day which is more dangerous if they crash!!! Total nonsense.Phil. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
