If ever you think that all traffic laws are for your safety, one thing can change that view—window tint.

If you resist this extortion, police will claim the right to kidnap or kill you. Unfortunately, in the land of the free, these instances happen so frequently that they are often caught on video too. As the following incident illustrates, fearful cops whose only tool is the escalation of violence, will not hesitate to resort ...

11 October 2021

As TFTP reported last week, Clifford Owensby of Dayton, Ohio, recently learned the violent and oppressive lengths the American police state will go to enforce window tint extortion laws.

Over the weekend, body camera footage was released released by police, showing just how brutal cops are willing to be over the darkness of a man’s windows — and skin too. Thought the cellphone footage was bad enough, after independent media outlets ran the story ...

What Is the Legal Limit for Window Tint in Ohio?​

Updated: Nov 3, 2020

Ohio law enforcement measures window tint with visible light transmission, also called VLT. The rules for window tinting are simple and go according to the type of window. The Ohio window tint law is no less than 50 percent VLT on the driver side and passenger side windows, 70 percent VLT on the windshield, and no requirement for the rear window of backseat windows. Additionally, side mirrors should not be more reflective than a regular window.

It is illegal for car vendors to sell vehicles with window tint that do not meet the visible light transmission requirements. It is also illegal for people to drive these vehicles.

What Is the Darkest Legal Tint?​

The window tint laws in Ohio are not as stringent as many other states. The darkest legal Ohio window tint law is 50 percent VLT for the front side windows. Many other states have tint laws that prohibit windows that do not meet 50 percent VLT, mainly for the windshield and the side windows. However, many do allow a free range for backside and rear windows.

New York and Iowa are two states with the strictest window tint law in the United States. Iowa requires 70 percent for the front side windows and any tint for the backside and rear windows. New York has a window tint law that requires 70 percent for all side windows and free-range tint for the rear.

States like Florida are different from Ohio and have much lower requirements. Florida states that drivers must have at least 28 percent VLT on the front windows and at least 15 percent on the back and rear windows.
