So i get pulled over the other day because one of my headlights are out..a loose connection.......the cop tell me he pulled me over for having tins....gives me a ticket for one of the window tins....I asked him for his badge number because it wasn't clearly written on the ticket. the Jerk off tells me to hold on and not to leave..comes out 10 min later and hands me 2 more tickets...one for the tins in the back window and one for the broken head light...HOW F*** up is that...had to vent guys...sorry

i think if you rip your tints off and show them at the precint you will be fine. as for the fine, idk cause if every state its different. headlight ticket is nothing as well, here in NY you have 24 hrs from the time of incident to get it repaired and go to the precint so they can verify that you did it. then you get a paper you have to mail in and its all clear.

I just got my tint taken off, going to get the ticket written off in about half an hour.

So in New York you're not allowed to have any windows tinted ??? Were your windows up when he pulled you over or did he just guess

i might but it would probably cost more than what your tickets are. i got into a similar situation, they had a tint check point next to the sheapshead bay train station, i was nice to them though and the cop told me he liked what i did with the car. they gave me only one window ticket.

back in the day, they would write off on it when you came to the precinct and told them you're tints are off, show them a "receipt" from a body shop. now, from what i hear, they're very anal and check your car before signing off.

here in Cali I never understood why people tint the 2 roll up windows. I went 5% on my back windows and the front ones have factory tint. factory tint plus no light coming in from the back windows, makes it look hella dark. I've actually had people ask me what percent I tinted my front ones because it looks like they're tinted. waste of time, effort, and head ace from the police to tint the front ones in Cali.

What's F'ed up about him citing you for no headlights and illegal tint?

Why would you want his badge number? Not judging, just asking.... His name had to be on the citation as well.

What was the 3rd ticket for? Headlights, window tint, and what else?

It just amazes me that people get pissed when they get cited for violating the law. If you don't like the rules in NY, move someplace else.

i got the ticket for 1 tint....he walks away and i call him over because his name and badge are not clear on the ticket....I asked so if i go to court i would know who the cop was....that pissed him off and then he gave me 2 more tickets...1 for the back window and 1 for the head light...I'm not saying its legal to have tints but mine are %30 in the from and 20% in the back...that's almost nothing...i see people driving around with presidential all around....plus this was by the projects...I'm sure there are some crackheads and drug dealers they rather chase....I wasn't speeding or doing anything illegal.

Greg, you sound like a robot in that post. Who wouldn't get mad about getting a ticket? Whether the cop was doing his job or not is irrelevant. I don't care what anyone says but getting a ticket is bad luck... because everyone breaks the law driving at one point or another.

There's a citation # on every ticket. The courts know who wrote the citation.

And getting a ticket is NOT "bad luck". There's no such thing. If I do 110 in a 55, I'm bound to get a ticket. If I stay at 55 - TADA! No ticket. There's no "luck", "fairies", "magic" or "witchcraft" involved. It's simple.

BTW, I speed ALL the time. ALL the time. I get pulled over on occasion. I'm polite, respectful, and friendly - No citations in almost 10 years.

And toxik - It's TOTALLY relevant. You want him to just ignore the illegal tint? Why? What benefit is there to him? Do you blow off YOUR job responsibilities for no good reason?

Calling someone a jackoff because they did their job is stupid.

Whining about a ticket you deserved is kinda lame. You said you're keeping your window tint... That's the price to have tinted windows in your state. Simple.

p.s. Fix your headlight.

He's definitely not a cop. Probably not the guy to be calling a a-hole either.

Greg's got some good points. I hate that it sometimes seems like cops ticket for tints over more harmful crimes, but it's still the law. You break it, expect to get tickets. Look at my sig, I've had my fair share. Non of the tints made me too pissed at the cop, more that I thought the law was bogus.

Edit: I pulled the tints when I lived in Illinois because Illinois law can smack you with a misdemeanor for tints. If it was just a fine, I'd pay it no problem. But it wasn't worth me getting a criminal record for. Now I'm in Indiana and my tints are illegal once again. Know what I'll do when I get pulled over? Wait for the citation and pay it.

Look at it from the cop's perspective. He sees someone blatantly breaking the law in front of him. What should he do, completely ignore it? Some do, some don't. And, you think NY is bad. Try riding with tints in Chicago...

Greg I'm still confused, first you say that you break the law by speeding but the cop doesn't give you a ticket since you are polite to him... well how is he doing his job? You're right I don't ignore my responsibilities at my job, because well that's my job. Am I supposed to ignore them because someone asked me to nicely?

Speeding results in a ticket to prevent you from killing someone (that's idea behind it at least). So being nice to a cop doesn't make it alright to speed either. Therefore the cop didn't do his job, hence you will speed again and repeat.

Yes I do want him to ignore illegal tint... if he can ignore a speeding ticket.

Quite valid. But, does not ignoring either make him a jerk? Probably the easiest way to describe it, although not necessarily accurate.

Everyone breaks the law. Can't really blame the cop when you get caught. Some are just less inclined to write tickets than others. Tint laws everywhere suck, it's just something we all have to deal with.

cops check for tint on occasion because it deters vision into the vehicle, aka- privacy, and also to see the driver, cus sumtimes, a "shaniqua nicole" steals a "John Jackson" and if the info doesnt come right on a plate search, it could be more than the cop bargained for. so its a privacy issue yes, but its sorta nice to know that if sumone steals ur car, a cop COULD notice (lol ya right)

regardless- cops are jerks at times. like my one ticket- "unsafe start" - im coming out of a STONE/GRAVEL driveway from a local flower/plant store- and a few rocks spray up and half a mile down the road im pulled over....

that and tints are the biggest jokes ever.

go get a dude thats not usin his/HER blinker while turning or improper lane changes, or those ***holes that always gun it under a amber to red (mostly red)

its bulls*** to some, if not all of us for some of the crap we get pulled over for. so ur not the only one.

get a PBA card, or get a card from someone u or ur family knows.

Fair enough, I wasn't trying to blame you. Sorry if it looked like that. I'm sure the cop thought you were giving him attitude, hence his response. I guess if it comes up again, I wouldn't worry about his name/badge number. If it's too illegible on the ticket, you can always call the office and obtain that info. I usually try to be as polite as possible which will hopefully avoid the ticket. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

I have some friends in law enforcement. Their all different. Some hate writing tickets, others don't mind. It all depends on who pulls you over and what kind of mood he/she is in.

I got banged for a tint ticket after getting pulled over for doing a 62 in a 45. For anyone that lives around here, it was on Sunrise Highway which is so stupid since its a main road and it changes from 45 to 55 every 1/4 mile, i checked.

anyway, i had one headlight out which i fixed (loose connection), then i mailed in that and the headlight ticket saying i fixed it myself. done, no fine. as for the speeding ticket, i went to court and paid nothing. why? the cop and his buddy were in a parking lot with no headlights on.

His point: You b**** at the cop for getting tickets due to your illegal tint and having a headlight out. He's a jerk because you got caught. You also assume you received the other tickets because you asked for his name and badge number. Maybe you did due to your tone.

As far as him being an a** for calling you out, maybe you should take your own advice?

The deal here is that Mr AZhitman will take responsibility for his speeding and not blame the cop for being caught.

LOOOOOOOOOOOL talk about taking your own advice? how about you stop brown nosing just because someone talked s*** to the boss.

you're the first one to step in and tell everyone to be nice and not drive people away from the forums when they talk s*** on a "noob". Yet look at you over there.

Very professional, you really set a nice example as a moderator. what a joke
