How to avoid a tint fine

More recently, new requirements for car tinting have come into force, and inspectors are very fond of forcing drivers to tear off the tint or “negotiate” on the spot. How to be in this situation? This is exactly what this article will be about, where I will tell you a way to avoid punishment for excessively tinted windows.

In connection with the new amendments to the Code of Administrative Offenses, the fine for tinting as of June 2011 is 500 rubles.

Driving a vehicle on which glass is installed (including those covered with transparent colored films), the light transmission of which does not meet the requirements of the technical regulation on the safety of wheeled Vehicle, – entails the imposition administrative fine in the amount of five hundred rubles (part 3.1 of article 12.5 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation).

Thus, the inspector, referring to part 3.1 of article 12.5, as well as to clause 7.3 of the List of malfunctions, is forced to remove the tint film right on the spot, or they threaten to send the car to a car impound. Indeed, otherwise the further operation of the vehicle.

Additional items have been installed or coatings have been applied that limit visibility from the driver's seat (clause 7.3 of the List of malfunctions and conditions under which the operation of vehicles is prohibited).

It seems that everything is correct and justified, if not for one BUT ...

In accordance with clause 2.3.1 of the SDA, in the event of malfunctions, the driver must eliminate them, and if this is not possible, then he can proceed to the place of parking or repair in compliance with necessary measures security. In our case, such a measure will be an elementary lowering of the glass of the driver's door and the front passenger door. Therefore, at the request of the inspector to tear off the tint film, tell him about it paragraph of traffic rules and roll down the windows.

Be aware that it is illegal to demand to tear off the film on the spot, and even more so to try to stop your car. In this situation, the most that the inspector can do is to impose a fine of 500 rubles, but this is also quite controversial. After all, in order to impose a fine, the inspector needs to prove that your tinted glass does not meet the requirements of GOST No. 5727-88, and as we already know, only checking the degree of glass tint can prove this fact.

If we turn to GOST No. 5727-88 "Safety glass for land transport. General Specifications” (entered into force on January 1, 1990), which contains requirements for measuring the light transmission of glasses.

In accordance with clause 2.2.4, the light transmission of windshields of vehicles and trams must be at least 75%, other glasses - at least 70%. We read further and stumble upon paragraph 4.7, which determines the procedure for determining the light transmission of glass.

Light transmission is determined according to GOST 27902.

Tests are carried out on three samples.

The light transmission of flat laminated glasses is checked on products or samples, bent laminated glasses - on samples cut from the flat part of the products.

The light transmission of bent tempered glasses is checked on samples from the original glass, flat - on samples of the original glass having the same thickness as tempered glass, or products. The test specimens can be of any size.

The light transmission of windshields of motor vehicles with a blackout strip is checked on samples cut from zone B for cars and zone 1 for other types of vehicles.

The measurement is carried out at three points of each sample.

The arithmetic mean of the measurement results of three samples is taken as the value of light transmission (clause 4.7 of GOST 5727-88).

As can be seen from clause 4.7 of GOST 5727-88, the light transmission of glasses is determined according to GOST 27902 “Safety glass for cars, tractors and agricultural machines” dated 01/01/1990. If we turn to this GOST, then in paragraph 1 we will see that tests of the light transmission of glasses must be carried out under the following conditions:

temperature - (20±5) С;
pressure - from 86 to 106 kPa;
relative air humidity – (60±:20)%.

Thus, in order to measure the degree of darkening of the front windows of your car, the traffic police inspector must:

measure three glass samples;

each of the samples - at three points;

in compliance with the temperature according to GOST 27902;

in compliance with pressure according to GOST 27902;

in compliance with relative air humidity in accordance with GOST 27902.

In addition, according to the Order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs No. 1240 of December 7, 2000 “On approval of regulatory legal acts regulating the activities of the state security inspectorate traffic of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for technical supervision "when measuring the degree of tint of the front windows of the car, the following rules must be observed:

1. Control of the light transmission of car windows is carried out ONLY at a stationary traffic police post.

2. The control of the light transmission of the front side windows of the car is carried out ONLY by the inspector of the technical supervision of the traffic police (there is a note about this in his service certificate).

3. Measurement is carried out ONLY by means of technical diagnostics that are included in the State Register of the type of measuring instruments that have certificates of conformity, as well as a note in them about the date of the last check of the device.

4. Measurement is made ONLY if the glass surface is clean and dry. In other words, it is forbidden to measure in rain and mud.

Measurement of the light transmission of glass can be done both in the daytime and at night. When measuring, be sure to ask the inspector to show you the sensors that are attached to the glass. They should not have any dark film, it fundamentally distorts the testimony not in your favor. When measuring, two witnesses must be present - the duty to find them lies with the inspector. Witnesses should not be persons interested in the case.

To make a measurement, I always require the preparation of an inspection protocol and the presence of two witnesses. Why exactly the inspection protocol? I believe that measuring the light transmission of windows is precisely the inspection of the vehicle, since the tint film is on inside glass and located in the car. In order to measure, the inspector one way or another will have to get, at least with part of his hand, inside the car. Without an inspection protocol in a legal way this is not possible. And to draw up an inspection protocol, you need good reasons. Very often, inspectors claim that measuring the light transmission of glass is just an inspection of the vehicle. But I do not recommend agreeing with the inspector, defend your point of view. How to determine the inspection from the inspection I wrote earlier.

From this we can conclude that to check the light transmission of the front side and windshield, in compliance with all the requirements of the current legislation, the traffic police inspector seems doubtfully possible. And the actions of the inspector with a probability of 97% can be successfully appealed.

So, let's write down the sequence of actions.

1. An inspector stops you, you turn on the video camera (voice recorder) and wait for the inspector to approach your car.

2. Specify the reason for the stop and get acquainted with the employee's ID and token number. Speak all information out loud. All reasons for stopping are described in clause 63 of the Administrative Regulations, approved by Order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs No. 185 of 03/02/2009.

3. Does the inspector want to measure the light transmission of the glass? Demand the drawing up of a protocol of inspection and two witnesses. We don't open the car doors without the security protocol. Is the inspector asking you to open the door? And says that you do not comply with legal requirements? Inform him that you will appeal against his actions to the prosecutor's office, because. his demands do not comply with the current legislation and his actions fall under Article 286 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation.

4. In most cases, the inspector says: "Go through." This did not happen? Remind the inspector that he has no right to detain you for a long time without a detention protocol. In accordance with Article 28.5 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, the protocol is drawn up immediately after the discovery of the offense. Request a protocol.

5. The inspector detains you without reason, call the traffic police trust service and report the employee's illegal actions. You already know his details.

6. He will eventually get bored and let you go.

7. If you decide to allow him to measure, then recall that measurements in accordance with the Order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs No. 1240 of 12/07/2000 can only be carried out by technical supervision inspectors of the traffic police.

8. The inspector calls the inspector of technical supervision of the traffic police, who makes measurements. And we remember everything that is described at the beginning of this article and put it into practice.

9. The inspector draws up a protocol, you do not agree with the protocol and later we will appeal against the actions of the traffic police officer, and after the ruling on the case of administrative offense We will appeal against it within 10 days.

Information update from 10.11.2015: Disqualification for tinting.

Which provides for responsibility for tinted front windows of the car. According to the information, if the bill is passed, the responsibility for pasting the windows with a film that prevents light transmission, drivers face deprivation of their rights.


So, in particular, the traffic police authorities propose to amend part 3.1 of article 12.5 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, which provide for liability depending on the number of offenses associated with tinted windows. It is proposed that in the event of a change in legislation, the driver who violated the law for the first time and drives a car with front windows that do not correspond to the light transmission established by the State Standard will be held administratively liable in the form of a fine (500 rubles), that is, just like now.

But if the driver is repeatedly held liable for tinting the front windows, then according to the new bill, it is proposed to impose a fine already in the amount of 5,000 rubles. In addition, in the event of a third violation for tinting, liability is introduced in the form of deprivation of rights for a period of 2 to 6 months.

At the moment, the new bill is being passed, the latest approvals in the department will appear on a single state portal. You can view and track the emergence of any legislative initiatives.

Article 12.5 of the Code of Administrative Offenses Part 3.1 " Driving a vehicle on which glass is installed (including those covered with transparent colored films), the light transmission of which does not meet the requirements of the technical regulation on the safety of wheeled vehicles -

shall entail the imposition of an administrative fine in the amount of five hundred rubles "

Recall that . Previously, there was a norm that allowed the driver to be prohibited from driving a car in which the front windows did not meet the established GOST for light transmission. But, the meaning of removing numbers as an administrative measure has exhausted itself. That is why at the moment the maximum punishment that threatens drivers driving vehicles with tinted windows is a fine of five hundred rubles, which, of course, according to the traffic police, is very small and does not contribute to compliance with the law by car drivers.

It's important to know:

You have probably seen that in recent years a lot of vehicles with tinted windows have been reappearing on the road. This is due to the cancellation of the removal of numbers. Most likely, this prompted the State traffic inspectorate to prepare tinted windows. After all, the growth of cars with tinted windows will in any case cause an increase in accidents due to poor visibility and visibility, which is worsened by glasses with a black film.

How can traffic police officers be held accountable for tinting today?



According to the current legislation at the moment, if tinted front windows are found in the car, the light transmission of which does not meet the established GOST standards, then the driver is involved under article 12.5 part 3.1, which provides for liability in the form of a fine of 500 rubles. License plates are not removed.

Is a fine of 500 rubles for tinted windows the only thing that threatens the driver of a car?



Many mistakenly believe that by toning their car with a film that does not correspond to light transmission in accordance with GOST as much as possible, which threatens a fine of 500 rubles for this offense. In fact, traffic police officers can bring you to more serious responsibility.

For example, a traffic police officer can, in addition to a protocol on the imposition of a fine under article 12.5 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation (part 3.1), issue an order to the driver to eliminate violations of the law. As a rule, the prescription is issued for a certain period of time. If within this period the driver of the vehicle has not eliminated the violation of the law, then the traffic police may involve the driver under Article 19.3 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation:

" Disobedience to a lawful order of a police officer, a serviceman, an employee of the bodies for the control of the circulation of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances, an employee of the federal security service, an employee of the state security bodies, an employee of bodies authorized to exercise the functions of control and supervision in the field of migration, or an employee of an authority or institutions of the penitentiary system "

In this case, the owner of a car with tinted windows, in addition to the fine under Article 12.5 (Part 3.1), may pay a fine of 500 to 1000 rubles under Article 19.3 or may be arrested for up to 15 days by a court decision.

How will the term for a repeated violation under Article 12.5 (part 3.1) of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation be calculated?



In accordance with the current legislation, the concept of repeated traffic violation and Code of Administrative Offenses Russian Federation, an offense is considered that is recorded within 1 calendar year (12 months) from the moment of the first similar violation of the law.

It's important to know:

That is, if the driver is repeatedly brought to administrative responsibility within a year for excessively tinted front windows of the vehicle, according to the new law, a fine of 5,000 rubles will be imposed on him.

It should be noted that from this moment begins to operate new term during which the concept operates as repetition (repeated violation of the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation). That is, if the driver was brought for a repeated violation (tinting the windows of a car), and within twelve months he will again be convicted of driving a car with tinted front windows that do not let in light, as required by GOST, then the employees of the State traffic inspectorate will draw up a protocol on repeated administrative an offense under Article 12.5 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, and send the case materials to the court to resolve the issue of deprivation of rights. According to the new interpretation of Article 12.5 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, the court for repeated violation of the current norms of the law will deprive the driver of the right to drive a car for a period of 2 to 6 months.

Car tinting... It can be treated differently, depending on the application and generally accepted norms of use. Let's try to sort everything possible options, not so much in significance, but in terms of associative pictures and images that are present in our lives.
First, what comes to mind is practicality. Tinting significantly inhibits the ingress of sunlight into the interior of the car, thereby saving the interior upholstery from fading and overheating. It saves energy for cooling the passenger compartment when the air conditioner is turned on, especially if the car has previously been parked in the sun.

Secondly, it changes the car visually. Dark glasses do not shine through, the body becomes more "holistic". Some people like it and some don't, but tinting changes the car visually, that's for sure.
Thirdly, tinting can become a sign of "coolness" for some when it is pasted on the windshield and on the front side windows. This fact is treated with contempt by most. Unfortunately, we still cannot get rid of such "cool" ones in our realities. How far progress would not have stepped and how many billions of dollars would not have been invested in the education system, which, among other things, is engaged in the education of such ... Nevertheless, there is also a law that is in force and sometimes even executed. It is about the fine for tinting, when using it not according to generally accepted rules and norms, that we will describe in our article.

Regulatory documents for the use of tinting on a car

The tinting standard, or rather GOST 5727-88, was developed already in the distant 88 of the last century, and adopted for execution in 1990. (Instead, GOST 32565-2013 was released, but it has not yet been registered in the SDA, July 2015). According to it, the light transmission of glasses providing visibility for the driver must be at least:

75% - for windshields;
70% - for windows that are not windshields, included in the standard field of view, in fact, for the front side windows.

The light transmission of other non-windshields is not standardized. In addition, tinted and tinted windshields must not distort the correct perception of white, yellow, red, green and blue.
On the windshield, a darkened or opaque strip with a width of not more than 14 cm from the top edge is allowed windshield.
In fact, GOST does not appear in the article of the Code of Administrative Offenses (for tinting), but characteristics are borrowed from it in (018/2011). Such data on tinting, or rather on light transmission, is in paragraph

4.3. Light transmission windshield and windows through which forward visibility for the driver is provided should be at least 70%.
This requirement does not apply to rear windows vehicles of category M1, provided that the vehicle is equipped with outside rear-view mirrors that meet the requirements of this annex.
In the upper part of the windshield, it is allowed to have a light-protective strip made in the glass mass, or to mount a light-protective strip of a transparent colored film: on vehicles of categories M1, M2 and N1, as well as L6 and L7 (with a closed body) - no more than 140 mm wide ...

4.5. It is not allowed to use glass, the coating of which creates a mirror effect.

It is according to this regulation that today they will judge the possibility of operating the vehicle, mainly. However, we will still remember about GOST ... That is, in fact we have two documents, these are GOST and "Technical Regulations of the Customs Union "On the Safety of Wheeled Vehicles"".
In what case and according to what document they will be punished, we will try to figure it out in the next paragraph.

What article regulates the fine for tinting and what it will be

Let's say right away that if our humanitarians, who "compose" laws and sit in the highest government, would deal with the exact sciences, then they, perhaps, would not achieve great success. And we would have clearly felt it for ourselves ... At least, it definitely didn’t come to processor technology, and you would hardly have read our article ...

Let's see what happens!? So, there is article 12.5 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation and part 3.1 which says:

Note: Here we mean "Technical Regulations on the Safety of Wheeled Vehicles", but in fact it has now been replaced by the "Technical Regulations of the Customs Union ...", which we mentioned above. In this case, the fine will be 500 rubles.

But what if the windshield is tinted with light transmission between 75 and 70 percent!? There will be a violation of GOST, but there will be no violation technical regulation. This means, in fact, a violation of the "Basic provisions for the admission of the vehicle ...", more precisely clause 7.3 (List of malfunctions and conditions under which the operation of the vehicle is prohibited). In this case, there will be again article 12.5 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, but part 1, not 3.1.

That is, if we have conditions or malfunctions under which it is forbidden to operate the vehicle, then this will result in a warning or a minimum fine. Let's try to find these malfunctions related to tinting in the list of "List of malfunctions and conditions under which the operation of vehicles is prohibited". Let's turn to paragraph 7.3.

It turns out a somewhat abstract situation. If you violated the requirements of the "Technical Regulations ...", then the fine will be 500 rubles (Article 12.5 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, part 3.1), but if you violated the requirements of clause 7.3 (Basic provisions for the admission of the vehicle ...), then this is a warning or a fine will amount to 500 rubles, but already in part (Article 12.5 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, part 1).
However, that's not all. Indeed, in the event of a violation of Article 12.5 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, part 1, many may think that 27.13 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation (detention of the vehicle) can be applied to them.

Detention of the vehicle for tinting (tinting film)

So the vehicle can be detained on the basis of 27.13 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation. Is it so?

As you noticed, Article 27.13 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation mentions Part 2, which is used for Article 12.5 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation. And we have a violation under part 1 or 3.1 of the same article. That is, simply put, the detention of the vehicle is unacceptable. The traffic police do not have the right to blackmail the driver with the fact that the car can be taken to the impound.

How to check the light transmission of glass (tinting)

You noticed that we have already started from the fact that the light transmission of the glasses has already been established. If this is the case, then it is possible to draw a conclusion about bringing to administrative responsibility or refusing to do so in relation to the driver. In fact, installing the light transmission of glass (tinting) is not so simple. The volume on this topic is quite significant, and we would not want to "sculpt" everything in one heap. In this connection, a separate article will be devoted to this topic, to which a link from this paragraph will appear. Here is this one.

Is it possible to avoid a fine for tinting

This question is complex, so it will be gossip from the "notes" of the law and from your personal communication with the traffic police inspector. Let's say right away that if a fine is issued under Article 12.5, Part 3.1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, which is most likely, then a fine cannot be avoided. Since this part simply does not provide a warning. If you manage to persuade the inspector that this offense can also be interpreted under Part 1 of Article 12.5 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation as a violation of the "Basic Provisions ...", then here you can already refer to the alternative of a warning. Part 1 of Article 12.5 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation provides for such a rule.

Is it possible to pay a fine for tinting at a 50 percent discount?

Question - answer on the topic "Penalty for tinting on a car"

Q: What is the penalty for tinting the windshield and/or front side windows?
Answer: If this is a tinting with light transmission in the range from 75 percent to 70, then here, according to the norms of the law, a violation of clause 7.3 (Basic provisions for the admission of the vehicle) will be considered. The fine will be 500 rubles (12.5, part 1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation). If the light transmission is less than 70 percent, then this violation can be qualified as a violation of those regulations, that is, a fine of 500 rubles (12.5, part 3.1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation).
