He was referring to the windshield. I don't believe an aftermarket tint on the windshield is legal anywhere in the US.

I called a tinting shop once to inquire about a clear tint for my windshield and the first words out their mouth was, "Are you with law enforcement?"

he said "everybody knows the police can get annoyed when you tint driver and passenger fronts"

Yes, police DO get annoyed with dark tint that prevents them from clearly viewing the occupants...IRRESPECTIVE of the legal status.

And obviously they can only ticket you when the tint is illegal.

But given that the OP is in Maryland, the legality of tint in Seattle seems...well... unhelpful.

Sorry, thought you were referring to the part of his post that said, "tinting a windshield is astonishing."
