Default Ticket "Rear Desizone"

I got a ticket for a rear desizone. I was wondering what that means?

The only thing that comes to mind would be police short-hand, as in Designated Zone?
Were you parked in a Handicapped or fire zone?
A "signed" private parking spot?

So, my curiosity is piqued.
What happened and what was the ticket actually for, Henry?

Default Rear desizone

Well i went to the dmv and got a court date. It was illegal tint/rear desi 20%. Im still not too sure what that means but i assume it means the rear window tints only let 20% light in.

Yup, you are correct Sir.
I have the same problem. Actually mine is 25%, but along with the factory tint (and what modern car doesn't have some window tinting from the factory) its more like 22%.
I was pulled over once by the Staties. They seemed to be on a training mission that day. They were everywhere and all had young troopers, Rookies I assume in the cars w/them.
I got a warning and nothing else since.
