This isn't a hey I was driving like a jackass and almost killed a bus full of nuns and babies, how can I get out of the ticket thread. It's just a question. I did get pulled over and was issued tickets. Which is fine, I expected it to happen with my tint eventually. However, I have never heard of this before. He gave me one for my front windows, and one for my rear? I don't mind paying one ticket, but the other just seems kind of rediculous. Has anyone else experienced this? Does it hold up in court? I'm just kind of shocked and wasn't aware that two tickets could be issued for one violation like that.

 

Sounds like some bullshit to me. You should only get one ticket for the entire car. That would kind of be like a Mustang getting two exhaust tickets because some have two outlets...you know.

Good luck.

 

True, lol.

In because I'm interested.

 

its legit ....back in the day when i was into doing all that shit for my car i had gotten pulled at the beach for haveing no front plate.....drove 2 streets down to get off bc the first was a one way and i was pulled yet again for no front plate. and yes they both hold up in court. depending on your judge he will decide whether u will pay one or both. i got lucky and only had to pay one

 

My understanding is that you cannot be ticketed twice in 24 hours for the same non-moving violation.

 

That made me laugh, and yea sounds like bullshit.

 

I don't think you understand the thread. He got 2 tickets during the same stop but both of them were for tint violations. One was for the front windows, the other was for the rear windows.

 

The OP had 2 seperate tint tickets written in one instance if I'm reading correctly I had a similar experience except it was for speeding. 2 cops running a speed trap at Rudee Inlet bridge (one on each side) each issued me a ticket for speeding at the same time. I went to court with a lawyer, and the judge had the faster speeding ticket dropped, in addition to telling the cops how he felt about their tactics.

Just go to court and use this:

DOUBLE JEOPARDY - Being tried twice for the same offense; prohibited by the 5th Amendmentto the U.S. Constitution. '[T]he Double Jeopardy Clause protects against three distinct abuses: [1] a second prosecution for the same offense after acquittal; [2] a second prosecution for the same offense after conviction; and [3] multiple punishments for the same offense.' U.S. v. Halper, 490 U.S. 435, 440 (1989).

 

Is the front and back the same tint %, or are they different?

 

Eh, double jeopardy only applies if you've already been tried for the offense. For example, if I was tried for Murder I and found not guilty then two weeks later I pleaded guilty there is nothing the court could do to me unless they changed it to Murder II, manslaughter etc etc.
