When I had the tint installed on my car the installer said they weren't allowed to install tint with less than 35% light transmission if they wanted to keep their business license. If businesses adhered to the law, there would be less of these tint problems.

I read the other day where an 85 year old was shot by police when he pulled his cane out of the bed of his pickup when told to get out of the vehicle. He needed that cane. Did he have a right to get it, yes. The officer thought it was a shotgun (at least that was his statement). The mistake the elderly man made was not communicating his intention. He was probably ignorant of the Dangers police face and routinely reached for the cane as that was where he always kept it.

We all have watched cops on television and seen an officer handcuff an individual for his safety while announcing he is not under arrest. Are they taking your liberties away from you at that point? Yes. Why? Because of all the crazy's in the world.

My point to all this is, I do not want any of these type of things to happen to me. I will be respectful, follow commands and try to not get myself into a situation I cannot control. When they pull you out of the car, handcuff you, and stuff you into the back of a car, you are no longer in control.

OP, do not let your pride get you into a position you cannot control.
