VPD officers (not sure if Cain or not) have previously been known to apply this rule to the rear wheels, in which case it should be invalid. But just since when can an average citizen win a logically-presented argument with field officers when they have a bone to pick?

MVA 7.05 (8)
No person shall drive or operate on a highway a motor vehicle which has affixed to or placed on the windshield or a window any material that reduces the light transmitted through the windshield or window unless the material is affixed to or placed on
(a) the windshield but not more than 75 mm below the top of the windshield,
(b) a side window that is behind the driver, or
(c) the rear window if the motor vehicle is equipped with outside rear view mirrors on the left and right side of the motor vehicle |
lol, nevermind a few stickers in the back... these vans don't even have windows.
