Based on time, money, and resources. As a truck driver never being in the same place for long, I would make sure it was worth it. The logistics of being where you would need to be when you needed to be there would be enough to not persue it. Just my 2 cents
You can have window tint and win in court.

You can run 70% legally according to Federal Statute. LLUMAR makes a great clear tint for this. 20% wouldn't be legal here in FL on a passenger vehicle's front windows, much less a truck. Your pushing your luck as your tint is in violation of federal statutes and most likely state statutes.

Fight it as I fight everything and anything to clear my name, my business and put down these "Bully" Cops!poppapump1332 Thanks this. -
You do know how that works don't you? They send it back to the same state to rubber stamp it.
This whole system is a sham that's whole purpose is to take our money.
None of this has to do with safety at all. as soon as everyone will say write me a ticket or I'm not signing the inspection report nothing will change. Except it will cost more and more to operate. Only when the write you a citation do you haver ANY rights at all data q's is a joke.
Make them work for it as hard as I do is my motto.Paloma Thanks this. -

all the sates I've checked on recgonize medically prescribed window tint as legal reason for having it and my long form notes that it's prescribed.
Of all the inspections I've had only this one decided to fight it. I've had my windows measured many times and let go after some talk.
Now it may not work tomorrow who know's? The last time I was stopped the officer stated that I had been written up for tint and I asked would he mind reviewing my motion to dismiss and what he thought of an officer filing a false report?
To get a citation dismissed when an inspection is done all you would have to do is invalidate the report for some reason and then ask to have the evidence supressed. meaning no inpsection, no ticket. -
when i've called some brokers they say let me check your score. I ask do you know how it works, they say no. I asked one broker lady did you know that
a carrier could have a bad score just by writing the wrong date on a logbook page enough times? She said no. This is a highly flawed system they're using and needs to helped into the trash heap. The only way to do that is drag them through court everytime you can. Make it so costly they will shudder the thought of inspecting a truck.
