Tinted Vehicle Owners In FCT Risk Arrest As Police Begin Enforcement

Jun 19, 2026

The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command has begun the enforcement of the ban on tinted vehicles, warning owners of such vehicles to comply with the law to avoid arrest and prosecution. The enforcement, which began on Monday, is aimed at ensuring that all motorists comply with the law and to prevent the use of tinted vehicles for criminal activities.

The development has generated mixed reactions from the public, with some people commending the police for the initiative while others have questioned the timing and relevance of the enforcement. While some commenters on their facebook page sarcastically asked if bandits also use cars and if they would obtain permits, others seemed to be more concerned about the potential benefits of the enforcement, jokingly saying it's time for him to start building his own 6-bedroom duplex as

a Law officer.

However, some suggested a more practical approach, proposing that the police should implement a policy where drivers with tinted windows wind down their glasses at checkpoints without waiting for the officers to ask, this would make it easier for the police to inspect the vehicles without causing any inconvenience to the drivers. Some also argued that more crimes are committed with motorcycles than cars, and that the police should focus on more pressing security issues.

The FCT Police Command has, however, maintained that the enforcement is necessary to ensure the safety and security of all citizens, and that all motorists must comply with the law to avoid arrest and prosecution. The police have warned that the enforcement will be total and that no vehicle with tinted glasses will be spared.
