The bill amends Section 31-23.3-5 of the General Laws concerning penalties for violations related to nontransparent windshields and windows. It establishes a tiered penalty system for individuals and entities that install sunscreening materials not compliant with the law. Specifically, the bill sets fines of $250 for a first violation, $375 for a second violation, and $500 for a third or subsequent violation. The penalties apply to any person, firm, corporation, or other business entity that owns or operates a vehicle with such noncompliant materials. Additionally, the bill removes the phrase "each offense" from the original text, focusing on the number of violations rather than individual offenses. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
