In the latest version of Senate Bill 64, a few words were added to clarify that safety inspection mechanics must not inspect windows that have had after-factory tint applied. This change is important because it aims to ensure that vehicles meet safety standards, preventing potential hazards caused by poor visibility due to aftermarket modifications. The clarification helps mechanics understand their responsibilities better, which can lead to safer roads for everyone.
