(a) Windshield, entrance, and rear emergency exit doors must be of approved safety glass. Laminated or tempered glass (AS-2 or AS-3) is permitted in all other windows. All glass shall be federally approved and marked as provided in section 169.74. The windshield may be of uniform tint throughout or may have a horizontal gradient band starting slightly above the line of vision and gradually decreasing in light transmission to 20 percent or less at the top of the windshield. (b) The use of tinted glass, as approved by section 169.71, is permitted on side windows and rear windows except for the entrance door and the window to the left of the driver. The window to the left of the driver and the upper service door windows must be thermal glass. Regardless of a bus's date of manufacture, the window immediately behind the entrance door does not need to be made of thermal glass. The window to the left of the driver for type A buses need not be thermal glass.
