And sides and back? Please. The desire for tinting precedes any factual necessity, just like insecure men whose loud motorcycles make them feel less pathetic claiming, “It’s for safety!” (It’s not.)

It’s also notable that far sunnier places in the world than RI don’t seem to have embraced the supposed “necessity” of window tinting. It’s mostly done by young men who are otherwise utterly unconcerned with the need to “block the sun” …

What are you talking about?

Florida allows 28% in the front, 15% in the back (or 6% for SUVs)

California allows 70% on the front, and absolutely anything on the rear.

Arizona allows 33% in the front, anything in the rear.

What sunny place with more restrictive tint laws than RI are you referring to?
