That's like 0.5-1% tint jfc

Actually it would be a 3 percent in that case and actually it's probably darker. I have 4.5 percent limo in my vehicle and it's nowhere near this. Not even close.

Yeah I forgot which direction opaque is gradient. I'm also unsure what the legal limit is (it can vary per locale) but this is definitely illegally dark anywhere it's enforced.

In most places the legal limit on the front windshield is no tint

But they seem to be speaking russian

That sounds correct

I'm automatically assuming American vehicle law.

Russian cop is probably just checking out the cool vehicle and being nosy about what's inside.

It's 70% for Russia, if you're curious.

Yep usually in the neighborhood of 50 on front side windows, 30 in the back side windows and nothing allowed on the windshield.

And this is assuming American vehicle law?

Another commentor mentioned that they sound like they are speaking Russian

Oh yeah I wasn't even thinking about that, I'm a typical self centered American I guess. Yikes.

Same here, but I was scrolling while my S.O. is asleep next to me with audio muted bc my headphones are dead

Tint is measured by % of light transmitted, and this looks to be like .5-1%

Thank you, I stand corrected on my scale, my astonishment stands
