Reps Propose 90-Day Extension on Tinted Glass Ban Enforcement

The House of Representatives has requested that the FCT Police Command publish a notice to the public giving car owners a grace period of at least ninety days to meet the requirements for tinted glasses and license plates.

Shagaya, who presented the motion, voiced concern about the FCT Police Command’s recent order prohibiting cars with tinted glasses and covered license plates.

Although the goal of this instruction was to improve security in the Federal Capital Territory, Shagaya said that its sudden implementation without sufficient public notice had resulted in widespread h@r@ssment of drivers and serious hardship to law-abiding individuals.

In its resolution, the House called on the FCT Police Command to immediately stop harassing drivers without cause and to release cars that have been seized for no other reason than that they have tinted their glasses or had their license plates covered.

The House further requested that the FCT Police Command publish a notice to the public giving car owners a grace period of at least ninety days to complete the required actions to adhere to the laws governing tinted glasses and license plates.

In light of this, it ordered the FCT Police Command to immediately stop enforcing the ban on tinted glasses and covered license plates on citizens.
