Every state makes it's own laws. I don't really know what you're crying about here, this shouldn't be news to you. The citizens of California are in support, for the most part, of the law. Otherwise it would get repealed. California (or any other state) does not have to go along with other states laws just because. Every state has it's own people, it's own government. It's a good thing.

If you're having that many issues with the sun, then you should already be seeing a doctor. California isn't Texas or Arizona where it gets stupid hot, for the most part. I can see it necessary to allow some tint in some parts of the country (and some pockets of California), but the people have spoken here. There's not much more to it.

I don't remember either so I can't tell you. When did it even go into effect? Maybe it is a law that Californian's might want to look at again. Or maybe not. As of now there is no public outcry to repeal the law.

How long 'til we get to the "papers please?" style of restrictions? How long 'til we need a 'zone pass' to leave our neighborhood. "What's that citizen? No, you have no need to leave your neighborhood, turn around and return to your home at once or be shot. Thank you for your cooperation."

Dude, it's not up to you to determine who should and should not drive across the country. There are dozens of reasons why someone would be driving cross-country. What's legal in one state should be legal in others.
It's not up to me to determine who should and shouldn't drive across country. It's just a suggestion based on you complaining about wherever your driving to. Not every state is going to revolve their laws around your opinions. Im sorry if that offends you somehow.
