SSB1019

Iowa SSB1019 amends motor vehicle window tint regulations to set a minimum transparency standard of 35 percent light transmittance.

Iowa SSB1019 changes the law regarding motor vehicle window tint by setting a minimum standard of 35 percent light transmittance for windows. This means that windows must allow at least 35 percent of light to pass through, making them less dark or reflective. The bill removes the Department of Transportation's authority to adopt rules establishing a minimum measurable standard of transparency. A violation of this provision is punishable by a fine of $70. The exemption for federal, state, or local law enforcement agencies remains unchanged.
