Even the Google robot doesn’t think 50% tint is an issue.
Well, you certainly couldn’t find a more authoritative source than Google’s AI response.
With 50% tint, I drive 100% comfortable and confident.
With no tint at all, my driving ability is impaired.
So where do we draw the line?
They said get sunglasses which I have. My prescription glasses comes with built in sunshade and it doesn’t correct my issues. Putting a bigger sunglasses over my prescription glasses only cause driving distraction and discomfort due to the weight on my face.
50% tint perfectly suits an individual like me, and the unnecessary law makes something like 50% tint problematic.
This is why me and my doctor have to be fighting with DMV.
Given your self-reported driving issues, I’m coming to the conclusion that you just shouldn’t be driving at all.

That’s not something nice of you to say, Cigroller. I wouldn’t tell you that you shouldn’t be driving if they didn’t make cars to fit your height.
Be nice.

IMO the state draws the line at 70% light transmission as a safety factor for the police. Lighter tint means that a police officer can see into the car at a greater distance and has better resolution of whatever is in the car.

Whatever your physiological issues may be (which, uh - actually can be relevant to whether or not you should be driving), it/they don’t have anything to do with being inattentive to … oh, IDK … things like stopped school buses.
My issue is light sensitivity. I develop migraine if I let bright light soaks my eyes for 10 minutes. I don’t go outside during the daytime hours to chill and chat with family and friends for this reason. I stay in the house or inside of my car or inside of a building during the daytime.
I set the tv screen brightness at the very lowest and no one in my home can see what’s on the tv but me. Everyone else needs 80-100% brightness in order to watch the tv comfortably, whereas I need 0% to see just fine.
I’m not color blind. I have no other eye problem than light sensitivity. My vision is extremely sharp at nights.
There are light blocking sunglasses available for that problem.

Or you get prescription sun glasses like I do.

The more and more you talk the more I firmly believe you should NOT be allowed to have a drivers license.

They make prescription sunglasses in any tint level and even with side shields if you need that. I have a pair for fishing and they block any unfiltered light from any angle…don’t like side shields? get a wrap around style that fit snugly to your face. My son has those prescription sports glasses for playing baseball…no fighting with DMV required. And the windows will not be an impairment when driving at night…

I wear special sunglasses for skiing. On a bright sunny day on top of the mountain - it can be extremely blinding - thus the term snow blindness.
No kidding! I just was out on Saturday before the storm. I have to wear prescription glasses and have had over the years both photogray and dedicated prescription sunglasses. The photogray’s have evolved substantially over the decades since I first got them. They are super fast to transition now and get far darker than they used to. Nothing beats a good lens filter and goggles for skiing though. Reflect most of the light and filter the remaining to provide super contrast highlighting the varying terrain.
