Summary

The bill lets a police officer, who reasonably believes a vehicle’s dark windows could endanger the officer, require the driver to lower every window until the risk is gone. It applies to any motor vehicle with windows that let in less than 70% of light, which is already illegal under existing traffic law. The rule takes effect immediately.
