License Tinting GA

Does anyone know if putting a tinted cover over your license plate is illegal in GA?

Yes it is, but even if you get a ticket there is no fine and will not appear on your record

*bzzzz* wrong. I have a friend who was ticketed for "tint over a license plate" in Atlanta. Cost him $100+.

Funny thing was, it was an Alabama temporary tag, which is blue paper. The officer said it was a "blue film over a tag," and didn't believe my friend. Even though he GOT OUT and said "look, look closely... see where it says "Alabama Temporary Tag? That's because my personalized plate hasn't come IN yet. THIS IS WHAT THE STATE GAVE ME."

Got a ticket anyway, didn't feel like driving back to make the court appearance and paid the fine.

Ticket infraction: "Tint over a license plate."

Allow me to pose a question:
What's the point of making it illegal, and making it a citation, if there is NO punishment???

Screw that place. I wish it was in California burning in that fire. They even screwed up court dates, suspended my license, and actually ended up costing me almost $300 for that b.s.

tinted tag of any sort over the tags are illegal...I've gotten a written warning. I think the trooper had just been having a bad day and wanted to write out something stupid...
