Bill > HB1340

This bill amends North Dakota's motor vehicle window tint law by changing the permitted light transmittance requirements for vehicle windows. Currently, windows must allow at least 50% of light to pass through, but the bill would reduce this requirement to 35% for side and rear windows, while maintaining the 70% light transmittance standard for the front windshield. This means vehicle owners can now have slightly darker window tints on their side and rear windows, which could provide more privacy and reduce sun glare. The bill also makes a minor grammatical edit, changing "that" to "which" when referring to side mirrors. The change applies to all vehicles with outside mirrors on both sides, and does not affect windows behind the driver. This modification provides vehicle owners with more flexibility in choosing window tint darkness while still maintaining some visibility for safety purposes.
