    I request the department please take strict action for this everyone. Please stand at Thokkottu you will get many cars with tint. Specially from Kerala State. And without license driving two wheeler and car. Small children riding the two wheeler in front of Police. Strict means strict. Please take action equally to everyone.

    Why no action on youngsters triple riding two wheelers that too without helmet?
    Multiple cases of young boys driving two/four wheelers without driving license.
    This is not an exception, these days it has become a pattern.

    Then what about Light Emitting Diode head lamps in the night ? They make opposite driver blind for some seconds, which could be a cause of collision. Police must act in this matter.

    Tint helps air-conditioning of the car especially if it is someone who drives long distances. And its only in mlr u see all these police acting funny on tinted glass. Check out KL cars.. Almost all have good tint.. A crime is a crime if done with tint or without. How many crimes have stopped since tint is banned??

    What a loosers. There r better things to do for society than going behind tinted cars. Let them first concentrate on the people who are disrupting communal harmony in the city. I especially meant moral policing by saffron goons

    Very good action. But only Penalty is not the solution. Vehicles should be seized atleast for few days, so that they will realise the mistake. I request our new Commissioner to do this type of drive against Traffic rules offenders continually.

    It is indeed good to see that the rules relating to tinted classes on cars are strictly adhered to. Soft spoken but STRICT as far as rules and regulations are concerned Police Commissioner clearly shows that he means business. HE SAYS WHAT HE MEANS AND MEANS WHAT HE SAYS.

    “He says what he means and means what he says let him elaborate Wat he wants to say “
    As per rules u can put 70% visible and 50% visible tint. But when they catch they remove the tint off . They don’t see weather it’s 70% or 50% or 30% visible . they just tear it of with the blade.How far is this justice Then y is that only when they want money they do this drive ?
    This drive is only for common people not for vip people
    There are so many vip people who have 100% dark tint why are they not caught ?
