Etihad Pilot Arrested for tinted windows.

Apparently on his way to work, the EY pilot was pulled over by the police.

They inspected his windows (word is he had installed the Vcool expat legal model not the local 90% tint with holes for mirror viewing).He was told that no tinting is allowed front or back and that he was not in compliance with a new law.

The result a AED10 000 fine and upcoming 30 day incarceration.

This is totally farking mad. Maniacs driving all over the highways and this is what our highway police are good for. What an amateur bunch of useless wankers.

Anyone here know of the window tinting laws locally. I am about to take a scraper to my AED 5000 Vcool job, however the wife thinks 30 days in jail would be good for me. It would dry me out and I'd lose weight.
