My driver side window was down. Now only if I had power windows, maybe then
I could have rolled the passenger side down real quick when I spotted him in
my rearview. I wasn't speeding so he couldn't have gotten me for that. In
fact, the exit is where traffic bottlenecks and 3 lanes turn into 2, so
speeds where around 30mph. I don't have anything else on my truck that is
illegal, that I am aware of :) I will just get it ripped off, and wait till
I can afford for some new tint, since I just spent $300, I don't have, on
prescription sunglasses.
