The New York State Department of Motor Vehicles is helping car owners determine if their window tint is too dark to pass inspection. As of January, an inspection failure will occur if the tint is too dark.

DMV has produced a video to show how much tint is too much and that video is available at dmv.ny.gov. Officials say the inspection requirement is intended to better protect law enforcement.
