Re: Supreme Court’s Order – No Sunfilms Allowed from 4th May 2012
The Transport Department has asked vehicle owners to remove black film or similar materials on the wind screen and safety glasses before June 17 to avoid suspension of vehicle registration.
Ultimatum on use of sun control films
THIRUVANANTHAPURAM:
In a statement issued here on Thursday, the Department said cancellation of registration would also be made if the offence was repeated.
The direction is in the wake of the guidelines issued by the Union Road Transport and Highways Ministry to ensure implementation of the Supreme Court verdict in this regard.
The apex court had on April 27, 2012, ordered that black films or any other similar materials which block visibility should not be allowed on the wind screens and window glasses from May 4, 2012.
But, rampant violation of the Supreme Court order was reported in the state which forced the Transport Department to go for tough action.

The State Transport Commissioner has asked motorists to remove sun films on the windscreens and windows of their vehicles by June 17.
An official release, quoting the Transport Commissioner, said the registration of the erring vehicle would be suspended initially and later cancelled if the sun film was not removed.

BTW, I have sent my Scorpio to the nearby car accessory shop to get the film removed today.
