u called it. i drive through amherst kenmore and tonawanda almost all the time never been given a tint ticket i have 35 percent

i had 35% too. anyway, i took off the front ones and went down to APD last night to have the car looked at and all to get the ticket thrown out. cop comes out and looks at the car, and the following conversation ensues:
Cop: these are still illegal
me: umm well thats how the car is from the factory, honestly.
cop: well, they look too dark. you did not take these off.
me: yeah i did. [points at the 2 balled-up pieces of tint on the passenger side floor, which i left there for this exact reason]
cop: you took this off yourself?
me: yes
cop: well, i think you missed some because this is still too dark
me: officer, honestly this is how the car is. I think if there was any other tint on there, it would have come off or at least been damaged when I was scraping the old stuff off with a razor blade.
cop: hmmmm
me: if you really do believe that they are still illegal, then by all means put one of those light meters on it, but i swear thats how the car came
cop: i dont have one.
me: oh.
cop: well even though these are still illegal, since you took them off yourself, i’ll give you and A for effort and sign your papers.
me: thank you
yeah…i didnt know Pontiac put illegal tints on GTOs now a days at the factory.
