:rofl1::rofl1::rofl1: Good one, Lil!

But really! While she was DRIVING?!? :eek: And she had a passenger HELPING?!? :yikes: The mind boggles. Unfortunately, I can picture the whole thing, which leads to other mental pictures. *rushes off to scrub her mind with Lysol* But, as Renee said, at least she wasn't texting. Doesn't that make you feel ever so much safer?

They stopped her because they though her windows were "overly tinted"???

That boggles me more than the drive by wank.

I guess its a USA thing. Here it is illegal in many places to have heavily tinted windows on your car. so its not at all surprising to us that she was stopped. Although factory tints are legal, sometimes those will get you stopped too, until you prove that they are a legal tint. The idea is that people might be doing things they shouldn't behind those tinted windows . . . which in this case seems to be true . . .

Its generally a silly law, but its widespread.

Heavily tinted windows are illegal here too. People don't care, and therefore the law is little enforced. I think the ban is for the protection of police officers who might make a traffic stop and need to see what they're getting into. Or, alternately, could be a Big Brother thing.

Some of both. Its put forward as a "see what they are getting into" but what it really means is "see what you are up to."

It's pretty commonly used as an excuse to pull modified cars over so they can find other things to give tickets for in addition, and used as a further excuse to search your car.
