Sorry to not have updated in a while.

In December I recieved a citation and a summons for not responding to the warning issued by the officer. I responded "Not Guilty" and sent no money for collateral. My hearing date is set for tomorrow.

After speaking with an attorney I feel very confident in defending my self. The law:

TITLE 75 Section 4524 (e)(1) of the Pennsylvania Common Statutes states that
(1) No person shall drive any motor vehicle with any sun screening device or other material which does not permit a person to see or view the inside of the vehicle through the windshield, side wing or side window of the vehicle.

The key word in this is OR. My windshield is unrestricted and you can see through the side wing and windows. Not 100% but the seats and a shape of a body can be seen. My other defense is this happened at night with my windows down.

Also the law does not state a specific % is legal/illegal.

What do you all think? I feel I have a good shot at getting off.
