Tinted Windows Law

Car enthusiasts and boy racers are constantly tinting the windows of their car to give it the sleek look they desire and create a certain element of mystery about their car. Tinted windows also offer security by not allowing theifs to looking into a car. However, there are certain restrictions in place to stop windows from being entirely blacked out.

New technology is in use by the police to calculate the amount of light passing through the glass. If the light shed is under 70% then the vehicle is deemed unsafe.

These restrictions are in place to maintain a certain level of safety. For example to allow the driver to see cyclist and other objects which may be obscured by blacked out windows especially at night.

Persons caught with windows that break this legislation can be summonsed to court and faced with a fine.
