I keep seeing this pop up in comment sections, about how you need to tint your windshield to protect you from the F350 Xenon Eyemelters and if you don't that's your fault. What the fuck? What do you mean tint your windshield, how the fuck do you see at night?

As far as I know, no windshield tinting is allowed in my state, but when I visited another state and saw a dark tinted windshield it freaked me out. I think dark tinting in general, let alone windshield tinting, is a big safety hazard in multiple ways: not being able to have eye-contact with other drivers and pedestrians, not being seen by trigger-happy, scared cops. I don't know if a study has been done, but I'm positive that if it were it would show that tinting causes a statistically significant increase in auto accidents and getting shot by police.
