Permits only one traffic infraction per traffic stop for having tinted windows on a motor vehicle
This bill (A 445) limits traffic stops for window tint violations to one ticket per stop. It directly affects drivers stopped for tinted windows and law enforcement officers issuing citations. The key provision states that during a single traffic stop, only one violation can be charged for tinted windows, even if multiple window types violate the law. This change applies to specific window tint violations under existing vehicle and traffic law. The bill takes effect immediately upon enactment.
