That sounds like some ole' BS. It would have to be a safety hazzard due to mechanical failure or missing equipment..... ie., missing a tire, no headlights (you get the idea), no licensed driver (valid), lack of insurance or if he was being physically arrested.
Let me check into that to make sure PA is the same way and I will PM you so that he/you know if it happens again.
I can issue a re-inspection order for an equipment issue outside of a citation but thats it if its not a hazzard....
if its something I issue a ticket for and it can be removed easily then I can seize it as evidence...like a false reg sticker, plate, or plate cover that obscures the writing. I can't see it being okay to impound for illegal tint alone.
