Points for Window Tint

[Duke309]

I just called the clerk of the county where I got my ticket for window tint and they say it comes with 2points from the dmv. I check florida statutes which says window tint is a non-moving violation and comes with no points. WTF! What should i do

Call tomorrow and hopefully you speak to a new person that might give another answer.

Tint is deff a 0 point violation. Even here in NJ where it's completely illegal.

I thought tint was legal in Florida...

Ask to speak to the person in charge of the county clerks office, and have prepared a copy of the traffic law statute which states that the offense is a 0 point non-moving violation. Usually most cops just give a parts warning ticket, or a fine ticket but you can make it a parts warning by having your car inspected by the DMV so they can insure the parts were removed (some states also allow this by notarized photograph and letter).

Tint is legal in Florida on all windows. If you went darker then they allow then that is your dumb ass fault

Florida Tint Law Enacted: 1991 (per a tint company website)
