When it comes to driving a vehicle on Alabama roads, you already know there are many rules you have to follow. However, in addition to the rules of the road, you also have to make sure that the condition of your windshield is also within the confines of the laws in Alabama. The following are the windshield laws in Alabama.
Windshields must be unobstructed
根据阿拉巴马州的法律，无法以阻碍驾驶员对高速公路或相交道路的视野的方式阻碍挡风玻璃。这包括：
挡风玻璃不能有任何迹象或海报阻碍驾驶员在挡风玻璃上看到的能力。
覆盖挡风玻璃，侧翼，前侧或后窗或后窗没有任何不透明的材料。
挡风玻璃设备
阿拉巴马州法规要求所有车辆都有挡风玻璃和清洁装置：
阿拉巴马州要求所有挡风玻璃配备旨在去除玻璃中的雨，雪和其他类型的水分的设备。
道路上任何车辆上的挡风玻璃雨刮器都必须处于良好的工作状态，以便正确清除挡风玻璃，以确保驾驶员可以看到道路。
Windshield tint
尽管阿拉巴马州确实允许窗口着色，但驾驶员必须遵守以下内容：
挡风玻璃，侧翼或后窗上的色彩不能如此黑暗，以至于车辆的乘员对车辆外部的任何人都无法识别或无法识别。
The windshield tint can’t extend any lower than six inches from the top of the window.
前挡风玻璃上使用的任何色调都必须是透明的，这意味着驾驶员和车辆外部的驾驶员都可以通过它看到。
Non reflective tint is permitted on the windshield.
When window tint is applied to the windshield, the tint dealer must provide and affix a compliance sticker to show that it is in compliance with the laws in Alabama.
阿拉巴马州确实允许对记录在挡风玻璃上有色彩的医疗状况的驾驶员进行豁免。这些豁免只有在您的医生和公共安全部批准的情况下证明病情才能获得豁免。
破裂或碎裂的挡风玻璃
虽然阿拉巴马州没有针对破裂或撞击的挡风玻璃驾驶的具体法律，但联邦安全法规定：
从方向盘顶部开始，挡风玻璃必须没有损坏，直到挡风玻璃顶部的两英寸以内。
A single crack that is not intersected or joined with other cracks is permissible providing it does not cross the driver’s view through the windshield.
允许直径小于3/4英寸的损坏区域，只要它不在另一个损坏区域的三英寸内。
Fines
如果不遵守上述规则，阿拉巴马州没有指定挡风玻璃损坏的确切罚款。
如果你的windshield needs to be inspected或你的雨刮器无法正常工作, a certified technician, such as one from YourMechanic, can help you get back on the road safely and quickly so you are driving within the laws.
