Ag for some reason I skimmed and conflated the time barred part to be based on the title 47, which is the criminal statute. You properly cited bad faith at 5 years.. I think the cause of action being the sale was 2.5 years ago, so we are well within the statutory time frame.

Though I agree it's a hilarious concept to assert the $200 in damages when that's like, less than half a car payment on a Jeep like this.

Now don't go conflating criminal and civil rules like that.. Unless you're talking about the VPO process. Then by all means....bastardize away. The legislature certainly seems to.

I think David Stanley, along with other dealers, is colluding with state law enforcement agencies to put these vehicles on the road and thereby increase the revenue stream generated by tickets.

If we follow the money I bet there is a connection between the LEO top brass and the owners of the dealerships...vacations, kick backs, Reserve positions. Outrageous!!

Haha. Though to be far to myself, I was conflating posts here, not the laws themselves ;)

Sometime back I spoke to a County Sheriff's deputy an asked the if there was a law prohibiting darkened windows (deep dark) and he said no there isn't, up see our windows? That's why we can't have laws regarding the dark tints.

Thats what I was told too. I have 5% limo tint on my truck and have never been stopped. I once had a car though with the 6" tint band across the top and I got stopped and he said that band went down too low. There is a mark on the glass that nothing is supposed to be below and my tint went about an inch below it.

Grew up in a small town and the police loved pulling over kids with newly tinted windows, meaning only two cars in town drove around with tinted windows, both unmarked "undercover" police cars(one had silver tint the other had black). The irony.....

I would draw your attention to (D)(15), which exempts your sheriff's patrol car.
