Tint in FL isn't ricer crap, it's a great way to keep your interior from fading and your AC working better.
btw, if it WAS ricer crap. why would every soccer mom have it on their domestic SUV?

I didn't realize they could write a ticket for a tip. If you can't do anything about the exhaust can't you just plead no contest to the charges or something?

Fix it or pay someone to sign that repair order, I'd just take the tint off and fix the light and exhaust personally, or that cop will continue to write you ero's till he's out of ink!!!

Re: Repair Order! have 10 days please help! (Crazydave)
Also..
remember this.
If you have anything hanging from your Rear View Mirror:
thats enough probable cause to pull you over
If your windows are tinted
thats enough probable cause to pull you over
If your car stereo can be heard 10 feet from your vehicle
thats enough probable cause to pull you over
If you have light out or it's broken
thats enough probable cause to pull you ocer.
If you are in a vehicle with a parolee or someone on probation
your vehicle is subject to being searched (even if your not the parolee or probationer)
remember this.

Re: Repair Order! have 10 days please help! (vlc92189)
im from md too. i have to deal with the dmv alot. ALL windows ALL windows have a limit of 35%. only trucks can have the back windows blacked out. 2 you can have the biggest tip they make and it will be legal,the only thing you can get poped on is the dbs being to loud, and this is easy to fight. and why are you asking about a brake light? to get it signed off all you have to do is ask any state cop you see. to avoid pissing the cop off i just go to the local state police station.
