> Again, you have to me smart and respectfull too. If I am driving a tinted out car, and I get pulled over, ALL my windows are down prior to me even coming to a full stop. Partly in hopes the cop doesnt see my tint, but also to show the respect to the officer for the exact reason you just stated. I have done this many times in my other tinted cars, and actually got a respectfull cop pull me over for tint, and when he came to the car and all the windows were down he asked me “Arnt your windows tinted?” I said yes, but I rolled them down so you could see me inside the car as you approached. he said thanks and actually let me go.

Couldn’t agree more and have done this in the past with same results and with the opposite results of being yelled at. It’s all in the cop you get… But you’re better off being respectful and hoping that they see that and take it into consideration.

> **Many of us have more than just tint as a violation.** If you’re an asshole the cop can keep his pen rolling. I personally have out of date inspection, no front plate, darker than 70% window tint, and questionable loud exhaust, Plus the violation I got pulled over for in the first place if not one of the previous stated.

Also, very valid point… Have seen this happen to Erik when merely asking a simple question trying to understand the law on rolling up windows to be metered… the cop threatened asking would you like me to see what else is illegal on this vehicle as well?
