I'm starting to think pre-paying is the way to go as well. I do like my tint but it's not worth the attention or risk of another $91 fine+court fee. Plus if I'm giving them an excuse to pull me over, next time I may get a second ticket for something else, like a driver's license that just expired or a an inspection sticker 2 days overdue. I drive within reason and legal limits as often as I can. I don't get pulled over for speeding or traffic violations because I always drive legally....I'm done getting pulled over for silly equipment infractions...it makes me feel like I'm not the good upstanding citizen that I am.

 

RUNNN AWAY!

 

Most of the time, during the last week(or 10 days) of the month, you will be pulled over for any possible reason, it's just the way it is, deal with it!!

 

This your answer for everything?

 

pay the fine and accept it as a luxury tax. $61 a year isn't bad considering you know what you're doing is against the law and you want to keep it on.

 

it ends up being $115 with court costs (which are charged even if you don't go to court )

is it possible for the judge to issue a fix-it order? in other words, ordering the defendant to remove the tint and provide proof?

 

Not sure if VA has S.E.R.O. fix it tickets. They wants their monayz.
