Re: important tip

And cars coming out of side roads, don't bother looking the driver in the eye. They'll look straight at you and still drive out.

Look at the front WHEEL, if it starts turning you know they trying to mow you down.

Try it, safer that trying to get eye contact.

Blacked out windows already illegal, only got one testing kit for over 500 sq. miles though.

Re: important tip

they are virtually illegal in NZ. Gang-bangers were carrying guns in the front seat etc and cops had had enough.

Boy racer types dumb enough to get front side windows and even windscreens tinted too dark have been pulled over for years here and cops have even shut down some tint shops.

Re: important tip

You can get pulled in a car with blacked out front side windows and have your car impounded if the visibility is not up to the minimum standard. GOOD I say.
