Tint rules apply to front windows only.

However, if you have a dark tint on the rear window, you may require left and right external mirrors.

Today driving down the highway today and what appeared to be two cars on the side of the road, worked out to be a charcoal coloured later model dual cab with very dark rear window tint. Two small led red and blue lights flashing. I didn't see a brake light from the six vehicles in front of me. I didn't brake myself until I was 30 metres from these vehicles. It was two lanes going into three lanes and another lane for turning vehicles. Point is there window was nearly black and flashing lights similar to a motor bike size. If I had received a fine, I would have taken it to court, my first question would have been about there tint. Unless it was legal and the inside painted black that vehicle should not be on the road. I would also ask where they got it done and how much ?

Just wait till you receive your fine in the mail in a couple of weeks time. :)

110kph to 40kph with traffic & 120 tonne trucks up your arse will make an interesting pile up.

I think its only a matter of time and there will be (more) deaths due to this.
Some people are so shit scared to take a fine or points they will stand on the brake & over react at the wrong time and be cleaned up.
I thought most people did slow down a bit when there was something going on even if it was just to swivel neck and dont think it neeeded to be such a huge reduction.
