Now correct me if I'm wrong, BUT, are blacked out windscreens and visor's not illegal in this country? Confused

I thought as much, well, on that point, can someone explain to me why Asians (probably more-so muslims) are allowed them on their £50,000 cars?

well that explains it, the screen was blacked out, like dark glasses, and there was a little hatch for the dog to look out of

Hi

There are restrictions on the amount of light allowed to be blocked on screens forward of the driver. There is some misunderstanding as to whether this applies to the side windows at the level of the driver (it does) which means plenty of people get away with it.

Including Princess Di who regularly got in the press getting into her car with blacked out side windows.

All the best

Keith

I have five Asian mates, two drive Golfs, one drives a BMW, one drives a Laguna and one doesn't have a car - none of them have a 50k car and none of them have tinted windows.

My point being I I'm pretty sure white people have tinted windows to Angel, why make your valid point racially slanted when there is no need to?

Can cars put that 'tint on a roll' sheeting inside the windows (much like a visor insert) and still be legal? It's not permenant or anything and we get away with it...

You can tint the rear window and back 2 windows as much as you want as it is then just like a van if you think about it. There is a limit to what you can tint your front 2 windows to and any good bodywork shop should be able to tell you this. It is illegal to tint the windscreen although there are ways round it, some manufacturers are using glass that changes due to light, like them sunglasses you can get.

It's not Asians with a lot of money, it's neds! Round here anyway.

I'm wondering why it had to be *muslim* Asians, how do you know they were Muslims? Did they 'look' muslim? Or are you succumbing to the governments 'be afraid' plan and getting worried that the darker skinned people - ie. Muslims - are all building bombs behind their tinted windows...

Ok, I can see this turning into a racist argument so I will advise people that if they are going to be racist to atleast give there reason. I'm from Bradford so being brought up with asians and have plenty of reasons to hate them. Although some are good people, the way I think of it is - If they don't work, they are scum... If they sell drugs, they are scum... If they treat white people like shit(like the majority of the 10-40 year olds do),they are scum.

But then again that applies to whites aswel.

rsooty I hope you weren't reading my post as racist? I was trying to make a non-racist point about the original post.... I totally agree with you, it's people's actions that make me dislike them, not the colour they happen to be. I was remarking that not all Asians are Muslims, and being Muslim is not necessarily a negative label in the first place! (unless you're the US government trying to keep your country nervous that is Rolling Eyes )

No... I just couldn't be arsed finding the post you were replying to. I'm half and half with it all. The majority of muslims between 10 and 40 are no good. The elder ones can be quite nice people. I've had lots of run ins with them myself so I think you shouldn't judge unless you have reason to judge.

Dude, u shud check out my homeland... 100% Halal muslim stuff, can't even go for a hot dog and beer cos it's considered "sinful"... Indonesia is a Hellhole and people drive around with 70% blacked (or brown tint) rear and fronts and 80% sides... I guess they've got blackouts here cos they don't want to be perceived as hypocrites here when they're blatantly smoking out of a bong and downing bottles of JD inside their cars.

You get a lot of them in london, particularly around Edgware Road/Marble Arch. I once nearly got knocked off my ped as some Cun!- in some arab merc S class with mirrored windows failed to signal and pulled out at a set of lights.

Seeing that we're on the topic of Asian blads... i kinda hate them boy racers with 100" pipes and the lark. During a snow day, i lofted a fat wedge of ice and snow into one of them shoddy 5" exhausts and waited from a distance to see the car pull out. When it did, steam was pouring out of the engine and continuously stalled. Next week, as i was walking past the college which the car was parked at, he had a new exhaust put on Razz Razz . And HE DID have blacked out windows and a Sunstrip!!!

um.. I think you'll find that Muslims are not aggressive people, and it is not an aggressive religion. But there are factions within it which are aggressive, and this is the only side of it we tend to hear anything about.

Just about every religion could be described as aggressive depending on which religious group you want to look at within it, that doesn't mean the religion itself is aggressive



All that sounds pro-religion, which is funny coming from me because I'm not really pro-religion at all, I think it causes way to many problems!

Buddhism is fairly current, if you stick to the roots and ignore the ceremony.

Hindusim has good intentions and interacts nicely with all the other ones.

But the monotheistic 3. They just want to start a ruck.

out of the big 3 religions islam has evolved the lest with the modern world (treatment of women, Attitudes to other religions, to name a few) christanty was exactly the same 500 years ago but changed over time. but all have hampered Technological advancement in the past (banned certain Sciences classed as "evil/sinful" for example the churchs ban on rifling in the 1500-1600 because the Accuracy was seen as the work of the devil)

The reason tinting was banned is because of some idiot in a corsa. He tinted all his windows with three layers of midnight tint, then pulled out and killed a BIKER. The police found out that only 1% of light could pass through the glass. Evil or Very Mad
