Police Raise Concerns Over Rising Cases Of Using Tinted Glass Cars To Conceal Crimes, Set To Clamp Down On Motorist Who Cover License Plates

Full Text By Commissioner of Police, CP Olatunji Disu

Today, the diligent efforts of our officers have led to the recovery of a significant threat to public safety. During a routine stop and search operation, our officers discovered and secured an AK 47 rifle concealed in a vehicle with tinted windows. Upon being signaled to stop, the occupants of the vehicle absconded, evading arrest.

This incident underscores the detrimental impact that tinted windows can have on both the safety of our communities and the effectiveness of law enforcement. Tinted windows not only provide a cloak for criminal activities, but they also hinder the ability of law enforcement officers to readily assess the interior of vehicles during routine stops, thereby posing a serious security risk. As such, I urge members of our community to consider the potential hazards associated with tinted windows and to support efforts to regulate their use.

Furthermore, it is disheartening to note the increasing trend of motorists covering their license plates, a practice that undermines our collective security. This behavior not only obstructs the identification of vehicles involved in criminal activities, but it also obstructs the enforcement of traffic laws and hinders the swift response of law enforcement to incidents on our roads. I want to make it unequivocally clear that we will be enforcing laws pertaining to the proper display of license plates, and any infractions will be met with the full force of the law.

In conclusion, I call upon the public to join us in safeguarding our communities by adhering to regulations regarding tinted windows and the display of license plates. Together, we can create a safer environment for all. Thank you.
