On December 2, 2024, the Honiara City Council (HCC) Law Enforcement conducted its first operation targeting vehicles with illegal window tints. The operation resulted in the arrest of 80 vehicles, including buses, taxis, and 3-ton trucks, as part of the ongoing efforts to enforce traffic laws and ensure public safety.
The crackdown was part of HCC’s commitment to removing tinted windows that violate the new regulations, which aim to improve visibility and reduce crime. The operation saw a significant number of vehicles being impounded for not complying with the tinting law.
HCC authorities are urging vehicle owners, particularly those operating public service vehicles such as taxis and buses, to remind their employees to adhere to the new tinting laws. Failure to do so could result in fines or vehicle arrests, as was evident during today’s operation.
As the law enforcement team continues to enforce the regulation, the public is encouraged to ensure their vehicles meet the legal standards to avoid further incidents.
