Tinted windows
dreadnought110:
after recent discussions with VOSA about tinting basicly the law now says no tints at all forward of the B'post and they are clamping down hard!! and can slap you with prohibition's so not worth the risk i'am removing mine even though they are the lightest tint you can have it's a blanket ban mainly caused by them that go stuiped and can't see out!!

Quite right too - it may be fine for bright, sunny weather but it can't help much at night.
The car across the road has dark tinted front side windows :|

I can really understand heavy tint's being outlawed someone i know used to have them and they where dangerous during the day never mind at night!!! but a light tint's not excessive i keep comparing them at dark juctions etc.. and don't have a problem seeing to make sure i don't clear any one up. :| well anyway there coming off...
robert francis:
i dont like tints, block the vision,
but a friend just got a fine due to having wrong tints, he had 70 alround and on the front the police man said max 30, this was only in november 08
hobbit:
If VOSA is updating the rules I imagine the MOT will reflect this too, (any testers confirm having an update on this?)
