Driving behind a car with tinted windows is like driving behind a box truck, you can't tell what's going on ahead of you. <br /><br />Most places ban tinting beyond some percentage of light that's blocked, chances are any car with black tinted windows isn't legal.Jamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04089108417465569092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29952376.post-39104875108080763232010-04-12T18:41:06.481+01:002010-04-12T18:41:06.481+01:00I can't really answer for all those other peop...I can't really answer for all those other people out there but here's what my answers are:<br /><br />1. My tinted windows are all for my bass. It significantly reduces glare and heat from the sun and if I have to leave my bass in the car for a few minutes, it makes my bass less noticeable (and tempting)for passersby, or at least that's what I tell myself. But before I got them I always thought "Who do these people with tinted windows think they are?"<br /><br />2. I sometimes leave a little room if there's no left turn lane so that I don't get stuck if the the guy forgot to put on his blinker. But if there is a turn lane I'll always pull up close so that people can get by.<br /><br />3. If I thought I was fabulous I certainly wouldn't feel the need to advertise it! Maybe she was being ironic. ;)Cyndyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11787927933858782267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29952376.post-42886395608262912502010-04-12T18:25:48.464+01:002010-04-12T18:25:48.464+01:00We tint our windows because it hides the pot smoke...We tint our windows because it hides the pot smoke.

Even though tinted windows are illegal where we live. But we left them because we'd been told they were hard to remove & because it really did help with the sun glare. Then we got a ticket in Virginia & the officer noted our illegal tinted windows. So my husband spent about 15 minutes removing the tint (apparently ours was super easy to remove). <br /><br />I HATE it when people don't pull all the way up. especially if I'm trying to get into a turn lane & they're blocking it.

(Remember the big black truck from hell? Yep, tinted windows.) <br /><br />Lazy idiots or sometimes very new drivers leave big gaps. They are about as obvious and annoying as a gap between someone's top front teeth. You just have the urge to close them up by say, a little nudge to the rear bumper?<br /><br />I have no explanation of why anyone would put anything on their side window.
