Why would my van be prohibited, for having tints on front windows?

Because it is an offence under the con & use regs. It is also categorised as being dangerous so VOSA and some police have the power to stop you using the vehicle.

I've just had a quote of £220 for all behind the cab, and I have 2 lots of sliding windows. Should get it done within a couple of weeks and will let you know the results and details.
