New window tint law in NY

Just when I thought NY can't get any worse I see this.

New law that is almost passed in NY. Now your car cannot pass inspection if you have window tint.

Looks like NY is going the way NJ went a few years ago. No problem for me, I know placed where I can pass and I have a DMV approved note but still a problem for 75% of the people who have window tints. At least in NJ you could tint the rear windows, in NY you cannot even tint those. The whole "protects the cop" statement is 100% BS, if someone wanted to harm the cop, tinted/no tint would not stop them.In my area you pay 30k taxes, have absolute shit roads, insane tolls, insane gas ($4.57 for premium), useless cops, etc, etc.

Time to register the cars out of state.

Makes sense as to why I've been getting pulled over lately. I gotta get that exempt sticker from the dmv. My eyes are sensitive by bright light especially when the sun is really strong on some days.

For me, it isn't always the sun that bothers my eyes.... It is the headlights that reflect on the rear and side view mirrors during night time driving that give me a head ache and make me sick. I guess we will just be playing his one by ear...
