Sadly, in this case you are totally wrong. Even the judge agreed that the officer was in the wrong. The Judge even saw that the officer went above and beyond his professional duties by finding any possible ticket he could give (like stupid pen colour which I also proved that the licence department uses was wrong) - this worked totally against him in court. By the way Sunglasses are not part of an officer's official uniform in Canada and are not issued to them for 'SAFETY' as you claim. This maybe why some officers wear them and some not but is not part of the standard issue items here in Canada. I will not ever admit I was in the wrong for that issue (officer can't see in)... perhaps wrong for having tint but that was not the ticket I was given. Matter of fact when I was pulled over I did not say more than one word - I gave the officer my information/ID/etc and he came back with the tickets and that was that. Actually, he asked me "do you know why I pulled you over" and my reply was "no", then he asked for my ID/Licence/Insurance/Reg papers. The other thing too was that he admitted that the windows were rolled down when he approached my window but the windows were up when he spotted me driving by... therefore, the officer was NEVER in any harms way or had any safety concerns while outside his car.

I don't care what you think about the reason you were stopped for. You've already admitted several times that you acknowledge your window tint was illegal.

On the issue of safety, You obviously know you aren't going to kill a cop. However, I have zero idea of who you are or what you are up to. I'm required to have in the back of my mind that every person I come into contact with may want to kill me. Unfortunate, but priority one is going home at the end of my day. Complacency kills. Don't sit there and tell me that the officer was never in harms way. He's in a uniform (which makes him a target) stopping someone he doesn't know on a public roadway where idiot drivers will run right into you.
