actually, putting everything (within reason, of course) of potential commercial value in the trunk, away from prying eyes, IS recommended by authorities.
i am only against front windshield tints, and, to a degree, rear windshield tints. to me, you can tint heavily your side glass, so they can't take a peek at your radio. but leave a hole for your side mirror's view.. heh heh.
actually, front windshield tints do limit vision. and that's a fact. and while we can often get away with it in the daytime, it becomes a different ballgame at night. believe it or not, despite what many drivers want to think, front windshield tint at night IS a driving hazard. the human eye is already maximally sensitized to light at night. it can not get any more sensitive to compensate for your front tint.
why are jeepneys always on high beams?
1. they can see potential pasajeros, better;
2. pundido na ang low beam filament nila, at ayaw nilang bumili ng bago;
3. low beams sila, ngunit hindi nila ma-adjust dahil walang adjusting mechanisms ang sealed beams nila; and
4. hindi naman sila hinuhuli, e.
and to those who claim that they've adjusted to the tint, i ask,"how do you know?" "i'm not worried about what you see, it's what you don't see, that i am worried about."
