NC sticker laws?

not going to happen. I am 6foot 6inches. My wife is 5 foot 6 inches. So we would have different lines of sight. How would the officer know if it was in my line of sight or not? that is one of those, "laws." You know like the one in the military that says the only way you could make love to your wife is missionary style. :shaking:
 
It's a good idea for those vehicles who have glass and CAN use the inside rear-view mirror.. I can never fathom why on all the area of the glass, people will choose to put a sticker dead center.
 
Probably applying more to those that are using the area for advertisement or the ricers that like the big Honda/Mitsubishi/toyota logos taking up the whole window.
 
Even if they did pass such a law I would think that trucks, vans, SUV's, etc. would be excluded, just as they are excluded from tint laws on back windows.
 
Susan, not to disagree with you but the new inspection guideline book talks about stickers but it is worded in a way that I dont understand it. I will post it word for word later today and maybe you can make sense of it for us.
 
The difference between a passanger vehicle vs a commercial 'pannel van' is the visability.

IMH (not informed) O - I'm sure it somthing like the inspection part about no cracked windshields. If you read it it doesn't specificially say you 'need' a windshield.
 
My XJ has had a cracked windshield for 3 years, and has nobody has even second glanced at the inspection station.
 
§ 20‑127. Windows and windshield wipers.

(b) Window Tinting Restrictions. – A window of a vehicle that is operated on a highway or a public vehicular area shall comply with this subsection. The windshield of the vehicle may be tinted only along the top of the windshield and the tinting may not extend more than five inches below the top of the windshield or below the AS1 line of the windshield, whichever measurement is longer. Provided, however, an untinted clear film which does not obstruct vision but which reduces or eliminates ultraviolet radiation from entering a vehicle may be applied to the windshield. Any other window of the vehicle may be tinted in accordance with the following restrictions:

(1) The total light transmission of the tinted window shall be at least thirty‑five percent (35%). A vehicle window that, by use of a light meter approved by the Commissioner, measures a total light transmission of more than thirty‑two percent (32%) is conclusively presumed to meet this restriction.

(2) The light reflectance of the tinted window shall be twenty percent (20%) or less.

(3) Tinted film or another material used to tint the window shall be nonreflective and shall not be red, yellow, or amber.

(c) Tinting Exceptions. – The window tinting restrictions in subsection (b) of this section apply without exception to the windshield of a vehicle. The window tinting restrictions in subdivisions (b)(1) and (b)(2) of this section do not apply to any of the following vehicle windows:

(6) The rear window of a property‑hauling vehicle, as defined in G.S. 20‑4.01(31).
(9) A window of a multipurpose vehicle that is behind the driver of the vehicle. A multipurpose vehicle is a passenger vehicle that is designed to carry 10 or fewer passengers and either is constructed on a truck chassis or has special features designed for occasional off‑road operation. A minivan and a pickup truck are multipurpose vehicles.

Hum......I wonder why that makes any difference
 
^^^ Um - for example... one *could* say that an XJ, having unibody is not on a truck chassis. But it is clearly a multipurpose vehicle.
 
XJ is OK, they did mention minivans after all.. :flipoff2:
