tinted car glasses, Woman argues with police, VIDEO

KARACHI: A video of a woman engaging in a heated argument with a policeman over tinted car glasses in Karachi’s Defence Housing Authority (DHA) area has been caught on camera and gone viral on social media.

The incident occurred when traffic police personnel stopped the woman’s car, which had tinted glasses, and asked her to remove the tint. However, the woman, who claimed to have been driving the car with tinted windows for over a year, refused to comply.

Instead, according to police, she began arguing with the officer, allegedly hurling insults and threats at him. The officer, however, remained calm throughout the exchange.

“I have been driving the car with tinted windows for over a year. Why are you removing the tinted windows? I have bought the police,” the woman said.
