The Law, What And What Not To Do!
#1
Here is the californian law and it explains what is, and what is not legal in their state, most of these are common sense to me and even tho its for California i think it does sound the same for Ontario.
Next question, is there a site like this in Ontario that we can go and read the laws in ENGLISH, rather then some complex gibberish?

thanks Mo


EDIT, i know radar dedectors are not legal here in Ontario

ok, californians cant tint there front side windows ??? thats a dumb law.... so are illegal color of side markers, illegal decorative lights, even if they are not on.
and to think im moving there in a year. anyone know how to un-tint a window ? i thought they ere the home base of car culture? how is that possible if they cant mod their cars ??

edit - it says that a car side windows cannot receive any aftermarket tinting. does that mean ford factory tint will be ok ?

also, it is legal for motorcyclists to split lanes? holy crap, can they do that here ?

as long as its factory tint its ok, factory tint does not cover the front window or the driver+pasenger side windows. the tint usually starts from the back windows. as for it being against the law, i've been to Cali too many times and trust me everyone and their mothers got tinted windows. lots of things are against the law but that doesnt mean you can't do it. as long as the officer can see who is the driver at night time you are safe.
