Re: Why are SUVs allowed to have tinted windows but not cars?

I noticed that in most states, cars are not allowed to tint except a
slight darkness in the rear windows (i.e. all windows behind the front
driver and passenger windows), but any car that comes with dark
tinting in the rear windows from the factory, as is the case with most
SUVs and vans, are allowed such dark tinting.

The problem is that I never see any regular car that has available
dark tinting in the rear windows from the factory,

I have. Its very common on Limos. Buy a Lincoln Continental with the
proper finish package.

meaning that cars
are basically not allowed such dark tinting but SUVs and minivans are
allowed. How is this fair, and what is the reasoning behind this?

I know police don't like approaching cars with dark tinting, but then
why is it ok for SUVs?
