Hey, first post here but I've been watching from the shadows for a few months here. Anyways my question is how much is the fine for having illegally tinted windows in NYS? My friend got pulled over for having tints, I think the light meter said around 13% or so by a state trooper. Any help or estimates on how much the ticket usually iswould be great. I know the legal limit in NY is 70% and she was clearly over the limit. Thank you!

Your friend can get away without a fine at all, if she has the tinting removed and the car inspected to ensure it is compliance. Remove the tinting then stop by a Trooper's barracks. They will test it again, and provide you with a "notice of correction." You can return that to the court, along with the ticket, and the charge can be dismissed.
Actually, the charge must be dismissed, if this is done by the close of business on the next business day. Any licensed repair shop can also certify the "notice of correction."You can now follow me on twitter.

Originally posted by appmanOk thanks that sounds good espically if the ticket can be dismissed, I will be sure to let her know that. Is there a set dollar amount in NYS for a window tint fine? Or is it dependent on each town/village/county? I was looking at the code and I didn't see a set dollar amount for tints(say someone decided to just keep the tints on after getting ticketed,not exactly smart though). Thanks for the help!
1st offense: $150.00 max
2nd offense: $300.00 max (if within 18 months of the 1st offense)
3rd offense: $450.00 max (if all 3 are within 18 months)
There is also a mandatory $5.00 surcharge. Look at Section 1800 VTL.You can now follow me on twitter.
