Look in the corner of the windshield and the passenger and driver's windows for the writing. There is a safety code there. If you put a film on that glass that is negated, which according to Transport Canada is unsafe and therefore contrary to the TSA. That glass is intended to absorb a certain amount of energy, and to break in a certain manner and the film screws that up. As for the film, it can be clear, orange, purple, black or mirrored, it doesn't matter, not ok.

There is nothing in the TSA about it being for officer safety.

Tint inherent to the glass and part of the manufacturers inspected approval is A-OK.

If the color or tint is dark or distracting enought that it impairs the drivers ability to see that is a seperate charge and matter, not the one being discussed.
