Today, I got 20% tints on my car. As I'm driving home, a cop pulls me over. I didn't want to ruin my new tint by opening my window, so I opened my door as the cop approached. He then pulled out his gun and yelled "GET ON THE FUCKING GROUND!" before I could explain. FML

Ahahaa. Dude, they get scared if you do that. LOL cop fail!

Dude, don't open the door unless the cop asks you to. YDI.

#21, Tints are not stupid and unneccessary for people who are photosensitive - in fact its a necessity if they have a severe case and they are going to be in a car for any length of time, or a mild case and will be in the car for any great distance. Might want to learn about what you are talking about before you comment on it. Photosensitivity is pretty common

Ugh, this scares me; my driver's window doesn't roll down and I'd have to open the door to talk to a cop if I got pulled over. I'll just have to be reeeeeally, reeeeally careful :(

What are you supposed to do if your windows CAN'T roll down? (ie- broken) And @31 he was saying because it had just happened he wanted to wait.

Wait I don't get it - why would the cop react like that? :/ It's not like the OP got out holding a gun or something. And this is probably in public, not like a sketchy dirt road or anything. So confused.

you must have been doing something really bad for them to be taking out guns as soon as you open the door

Why would you get your windows tinted anyway? It looks stupid and it's completely unnecessary. YDI because tinted windows draw attention to your car thus why the cop pulled you over, probably. Also, if there is a ******* cop outside of your car the last thing you want to be worried about is your windows. One more thing, 20% is a lot of tint, depending where you live. The window tint laws and how much light that is required to enter varies from state to state. Perhaps where he lives, the amount of tint he had on his windows was illegal.

Why do people wear makeup??? It's completely stupid and unnecessary and only draws attention. It's for looks dipshit. Of course some people would want to tint their windows its just like girls putting on makeup or getting a tattoo. It's for visual appearance.

No we do it to make ourselves feel better and prettier about ourselves

what did he pull you over for? were you being sketchy or just a couple mph over the limit?

....and wave em like you just don't care. Sorry I couldn't resist

If I was a cop in the USA, I'd be paranoid too. YDI.

I'd have maybe opened the door but made sure you had both hands up where he could see them? I know, you were nervous and he was too, and yeah... really just sucked for both sides.
