Japanese regulations prohibit tinting on the driver's side and front passenger side windows, while rear seat windows can have any film applied, but no film is allowed on the front windows. 2. After applying tinting film, the low transmittance severely affects the driver's visibility, increasing the risk of traffic accidents. 3. Even if the windshield tinting film meets the legal light transmittance standards, regulations still require that a certain size of blank space be left at the upper edge of the windshield, prohibiting complete coverage. This facilitates maintaining visibility in the direction of travel for both front and rear vehicles. 4. With advancements in glass manufacturing technology, many foreign cars have solved the problems of heat insulation and UV protection, eliminating the need for tinting film.
