State in spection station WERE able to fail for tint about, 12 years ago.
The Inspectionstions were complaining that they would fail the car, tint would be removed, and the reapplied, therefore jepordizing the inspection stations license’s.
Therefore they amendid the law so that the inspection station did not HAVE to fail the car, BUT the left it writen as a violation of inspection, and safty.
Windoe tint citations are BS, cant fight it cause everybody else just “Mans up, and pays” so you are stuck being that one guy standing there.
Pa. needs to “Man up” and set a definate percentage, whether it be 70% or 50%, becuase the last officer i spoke with said “Our dewpartment doesnt have a meter, so i look at the back of my car, and the window in question, if i can see more interior items of my vehicle than the person who im attempting to cite, then its illeagal”
I was like WTF? Its Bull shit, and even my tint guy does all the local Governments personal cars, and guess what, they dont get tickets for and and they are the same pricks that wont make a law for a certain percent.

Some of the Ross Park cops (okay just one Officer White) ride around with Meters… The limit is 70 (according to him)
He has pulled over a lot of customer’s of a friend’s shop, it’s his personal vendatta to stop tinting. He actually told a customer “take me to the place that did this to your car” Dumbass drove him over. He then continued to harass everyone at the shop, and wrote a ticket to the customer and then one of the employees as he pulled into the parking after a coffee run.

> DB meter shit is thrown out when you can hear a car pass a certain distance. back when alot of you dont remember but Mt washington had issues with DB levels. so instead of proving with a DB meter they made it so if they heard your car i think within 20 from the front of the car then it was too loud and they could ticket you for noise polution.
> as for exhaust there is a certain DB level that is given but isnt inforced as much knows since most damm Harley’s double that but im sure they will start cracking down on the cars.

> fighting a ticket of exhaust noise is pointless cause they can go back and look at the car and in some cases they can get you for Alter’d exhaust, in some cases NO cats and i dont think LTs are legal either so again this goes for Alter’d exhaust… i seen aticket before for any alterations to an exhaust was illegal if it increased performance or noise… this was given to a bike owner in PGH

> so suck up the fine and just go on your way its not worth fighting a little battle when you could lose big like the war
ahhh… highschool
i loved heading up to Mt washington just to get harassed. I remember the news people put decibel meters up there for one of the reports.

have you guys ever seen 70% pass through before, it’s practically stock on all passenger cars now :shrugs:
and that “being able to see the interior” is bull too. My interior is dark gray, so obviously the interior is going to appear darker than someone with a tan interior. right?
edit…
and how many un-marked patrol cars do you see with tint? yeah, a lot. If that’s not illegal then nothing should be. Tint is indangering nothing but lawmaker’s prides

so guess what, I eat my words…apparently my mother has taken over the entire situation(car’s in her name for insurance) and the film is coming off. I’m kinda depressed now, not too much seperates me from every other car on the road. I never cared much for appearance shit but I loved having tint, it set the car off.

the cop only said take off the front 2. I hate the way cars look without a uniform tint though, I might just take it all off :dunno:
thinking now about getting it re-applied after winter, I haven’t decided if it’s worth the trouble

With a note from your doctor only have part of what is needed for exemption. You need MV-402 form from the state with the letter from your doctor. Only then will Penn Dot issue a medical exemption waiver for sunscreening. I believe that it is hard to obtain this exemption.
Link for MV-402
