where does it say SPECIFICALLY that you can have your windows tinted if you have a signed doctor's note... what subdivision 10 says is that you can have a sun screening device. What that generally means is that you can have a sun screen (like they have for babies) that can be REMOVED (you find those at target and walmart), not that your windows can be TINTED. Sorry, you lose on that one.

What is your basis for fighting the rest of the ticket?

For the rest of you who don't want to go look (I have the book on my computer desk) here is the exact wording:

(10) Sun screening devices meeting the requirements of Section 26708.2 installed on the side windows on either side of the vehicle's front seat, if the driver or a passenger in the front seat has in his or her possession a letter or other document signed by a licensed physician and surgeon certifying that the person must be shaded from the sun due to a medical condition, or has in his or her possession a letter or other document signed by a licensed optometrist certifying that the person must be shaded from the sun due to a visual condition. The devices authorized by this paragraph shall not be used during darkness

26708.2 reads:
(2) No person shall drive any motor vehicle with any object or material placed, displayed, installed, affixed, or applied in or upon the vehicle which obstructs or reduces the driver's clear view through the windshield or side windows.
I've NEVER seen someone win with your argument.
