Hey guys, I am new at this form so please bare with me. I was hoping someone can redirect me to a source which says that reflective windshield films, layer or tint is illegal. Or if any of you admins/cops can help me with this. Is it illegal to have a layer of reflective film on the top part of the windshield to act as a sun visor and reduce sun glare, improving a drivers vision. When I mean top part as in only to the point on windshield where it says A6 or something. Thank you for your time, and I appreciate your efforts. Oh and to all cops out there, thank you for doing a great service to this country and it's people, alot of people hate on cops for doing their job right and for being "over protective", you cops don't get enough recognition for the great work you guys do every single day. Thank you.

I know in several US states their laws are very specific as to how much tint/reflection you can have and to what point on the windshield. Unfortunately I don't think we have anything that specific here in Ontario; it's typically a judgement call on the part of the officer. If it's likely to prevent a clear view in AND out of the windshield, then you risk getting stopped and charged. I would think though if it's small reflective strip at the very top of the windshield, you'd probably be o.k.

Window tinting is not illegal per se, however s. 73(2) of the HTA says that tint can not obscure the drivers view of the roadway and s. 73(3) says that tint on the front windshield or on the windows to the left or right of the driver can not obscure the view of the interior from the outside. Whether a tint obscures is a matter of articulation of course and is case specific.

I just received a parking ticket for parking outside of the space, to me that is crazy because I was parked in the corner of the lot, was not blocking anyone or a through way, so I thought there is no harm. I've seen people park there all day and not get a ticket.

I was hoping to receive some advice on the unfortunate situation that I currently find myself in.
Last night, at 7pm, I was at an intersection waiting for the oncoming traffic to clear so that I could turn left. I thought that I was waiting at the intersection behind only one other vehicle (a van)…
So i received my first speeding ticket...officer claimed I was doing 73 km/hr in a 50 zone. He did reduce it to 63 - should fight it? The ticket did not mention a cross road. Its just states N.B on Caledonia. I don't believe d points are affected but I'm worried about insurance.
Exactly a week ago today, I was caught going 135 in an 80, on Highway 3 near Windsor, Ontario. I know this is just completely idiotic and there hasn't been a minute since I was charged that I haven't been smacking myself for this. I'm very, very remorseful and just overall torn about…
I was making a left turn, didn't have headlights on and was putting on my seatbelt at a time. Really stupid thing to do, was very stressed out and just feel dumb about it. What am I facing, and what impact will it have on my insurance? On ticket it just says Careless driving, there are no details..
Late Saturday afternoon, December 1st, I entered the Shops at Don Mills with my vehicle and drove due East as I needed to make a quick deposit in the TD Bank. I made a left hand turn onto the side street and on the right side where I parked, there is a condo under construction with all the usual…
Hi, I just received a notice in the mail with pictures of my car going through a red light. Ticket is in my husband's name, as he is the car owner, but I drive this car. I'm guilty as can be... can't remember doing it, but apparently went right through intersection after light turned red. I…
