The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA) has informed car owners with tinted windows to remove them as it violates road traffic regulations.
According to the DVLA, to ensure safe driving and reduce the risk of road traffic crashes, it is advising all road users to exercise extra caution when driving and crossing roads and, therefore, advises against using tinted glass, which can reduce the quality of vision, especially in dusty weather conditions.
It also reminded drivers that Regulation 67 (3) (4) of the Road Traffic Regulation L. I 2180 prohibits driving a motor vehicle with tinted windows and a front windscreen.
The Authority, in a statement, thus, noted that to ensure compliance, its Compliance and Enforcement Unit will conduct roadside checks to ensure that all safety measures are adhered to, including the removal of tint from vehicles.
