Tint Violation

Here's the Ontario rules:
- Front windshield: No aftermarket tint is allowed. However, factory-made windows may have up to 70% Visible Light Transmission (VLT), but only on the top 75mm (3 inches) of the windshield.
- Front side windows: Tinting is not explicitly prohibited, but Ontario law states that these windows must not “substantially obscure the interior of the motor vehicle when viewed from outside.” Generally, 70% VLT is considered acceptable.

The police now have handheld testers for tint level and have been cracking down in some areas. Much of this it likely for police safety

Also Front & Rear Plates needed for Ontario vehicles. Out of province not penalized if only rear.

... first of all tinting is almost always professionally applied to the inside of the glass surface so any benefit to a rock hitting the outside would be minimal, if any. If it was on the outside, I could see it helping to prevent a chip from a stone. But IMO, it is essential that we have the absolute best unimpeded vision at night; windshield tinting could impair visibility.

Tell em, Florida has super bright sunshine therefore tinting helps safety (visibility). In NY gangs tint
