There is a huge visible difference between 25% and 35%. My dad has 35% on his Mercedes, I have 25% on my truck and you cant see in my truck at all. My dad's you can still have pretty good visibility looking into the car.

i respect cops completely. they have a career that many wouldn't want. putting their lives in danger to protect everyone, and on a not too impressive salary. my dad is our county sheriff, and everyone in his department are some of the nicest people you'll ever meet. however when they're out on the job, they can't be Mr. friendly with everyone, because 95% of the time they deal with s***heads. but they're always fair imo. i got pulled over when i was late and rushing to a Luke bryan concert last fall. it was a state trooper and he got me for 76 in a 55. he bumped it down to 64 so i wouldn't get super speeder and a massive fine, and he knew i was lost so he gave me directions that got me straight to the concert. imo, that's beyond fair. anybody that hates on cops needs a reality check. without them, the world would be hell

There's a few things on my truck that I legally shouldn't have but as long as you don't try to draw attention to yourself most generally your gonna be fine. That's the main reason why I haven't blacked out my tail lights, cause I'd love to, but the law here is pretty strict on it.

I just got pulled over. 53 in a 45. I was respectful to to officer and ha was respectful to me too. It was in a newly dropped limit area so he gave me a warning. If he would have gave me a ticket it would have been $156. Beings my good attitude and my good record he thankfully gave me a written warning.
