Reconsider Window Tint Laws: Make It a Secondary Offense


Reconsider Window Tint Laws: Make It a Secondary Offense
The Issue
Current traffic laws allow motorists to be pulled over for primary offenses such as having window tints that are beyond the permissible limit. This imposes undue stress and inconvenience for many drivers who might otherwise be following all other traffic rules and regulations. In most US states, window tint percentage ranges between 30-40% which is quite arbitrary and varies across states without clear reasoning. (Source: AAA) Complicating matters is the fact that different states have different restrictions, causing confusion among drivers who traverse multiple states. We urge the traffic authorities and lawmakers to reconsider these laws and make window tinting a secondary reason, not a primary one, for being pulled over. This means that drivers could only be cited for this offense if they are pulled over for another, separate violation. This will ensure that motorists are not unduly penalized for a relatively minor infraction. Please support this cause to create a fairer system for all drivers. Sign this petition now.
