Personally speaking, I think tinting to any dark level should be illegal. Too many crimes are commited and victims cant see their attackers because of dark tinted vehicles.

Ok, that is also one way to put it, but why not make it all illegal for dark tints and when a car is found out of boundaries, confiscate the car and impound it until owner pays fine and also removal of tint? Now this may be going a bit drastic, but too many people are over doing it. And the reflective is something that should not be available to begin with. They should shut down the businesses who engage in selling this.

50% tint on the front windshield cmes like if yuh have no tint at all and driving in the night is not a problem at all. If I don't tell people my windshield tinted they won't know. I'm tempted to go 35% but the rest of my car is 5% and I doh like to have to deal with police so I think I will leave it 50 %.
