Fined $30,000 for tint

An ongoing campaign against the use of unauthorized tints on vehicles in the Linden area landed a twenty-eight-year-old driver in the Christianburg Magistrate’s Court yesterday. Cleon Rodney was slapped with a $30,000 fine or in default twenty-one days imprisonment after he pleaded guilty to driving motor car PLL 8465 along Republic Avenue on the 26th October, 2009.

The car was tinted to such an extent as to obstruct the identification of persons travelling therein.
