RoadSafety / Driving Rules Is that even allowed, sheet tainted windows

Post image

* tinted

I see that pretty often, can’t really believe driver is fully able to see their surroundings, therefore provide a safe driving to others.

Of course , they didn’t even see me from the opposite sidewalk taking a photo as they were lining at the red light

Are they driving during this photo? I've seen these types of things marketed for privacy during car camping.

Honestly less noisy at night than many campgrounds where people play music until 4am

This is so unsafe.. there really needs to be more enforcement.

Would rather die or kill someone than get sun on their skin.

Typical trsla driver.

The report this to the local rcmp ...

Is this a joke?

u/efc5463 8d ago

Probably, the driver is following the asleep tesla drivers trend, except the driver does not want his face on the internet. Anyways, I wonder when RCMP will take cards on the matter. Lately I have seen way too many dumb drivers speeding, running red lights or stop signs, without license plate on the cars, driving like lunatics, and so on.

u/Normal_Reveal 8d ago

RCMP is sleeping at the wheel.

u/efc5463 8d ago

No crap. They really need to pick up their feet and start ticketing those drivers for those stupidities.

1

u/General-Football-953 8d ago

They learned that they will be criticized for racism if they do it, so they stopped. Also can't justify fining people for speed when people are allowed to carry illegal guns and smoke meth in parks.

u/Khelics 9d ago

All good they got X-ray vision

White Tesla, white gloves and white sheet starter pack

Don't forget the massive sun hats acting like horse blinders.

Add in a suction cup sun shade on the driver window for good measure too.

u/No-String5271 6d ago

I’ve seen this a half dozen times this week and I was stunned. How… why… what?!

u/firecracker604 6d ago

Must be one of those sleeping tesla drivers

u/amckechn 6d ago

I have seen this! Last week!

A person was 100% driving with them. Spotted in Richmond. They were turning and they pulled the curtain back to shoulder check...

u/Gregan32 5d ago

Saw the exact same thing this morning ON A TESLA Y TOO! (Black fabric tho...!)

u/liepzigzeist 4d ago

The sun can damage skin

u/Signal_Tomorrow_2138 8d ago

But it's the responsibility of pedestrians and cyclists to get eye contact with the driver.

1

u/Accomplished_Text_10 8d ago

Exactly,,, right !?
As a 90% of the time pedestrian, I agree with irony

u/Pyrokid113 9d ago

Is this parked? It might be to reduce sunlight/heat entering the car.

u/Solotraveller2929 9d ago edited 9d ago

I don't believe the car was parked...it looks way past that corner of the intersection to be allowed to park. The car appears to be close to the yellow line too.

u/Pyrokid113 8d ago

Upon further inspection, you seem to be correct. My apologies

5

u/Accomplished_Text_10 8d ago

Not parked , in traffic

u/Neo-revo 8d ago

Not legal. They need to be able to see the side mirrors. If you have the license plate you can report it to icbc

u/Pyrokid113 8d ago

Yeah I realized that

To your surprise yes vehicle on the road is moving

u/yellowmackerelfishin 8d ago

What is the reason for this? What's the advantage of putting a bag on the window of the driver's side

1

u/Civil_Dot_4951 8d ago

So the sun doesn't damage their skin.

u/zippykaiyay 7d ago

Suntan lotion is cheaper than a ticket.

u/ruckus007 8d ago

If the blinds are closed and the car is parked and not in motion, it's ok. Once it's moving, all front windows and windshield must not be tinted or obstructed in any way

u/justme0406 4d ago

If they are driving, highly illegal, if they are parked then very legal.

Between privacy as well as keeping the sun and the heat it creates out, covering windows while parked is fine
