Q&A - Driver's Window Winder

Q&A ImageQuestion: I was pulled over today for no reason and after a long wait the officer gave me a Motor Vehicle Act infraction warning because my driver side window winder doesn't roll down. I have looked and I can not find this in the Motor Vehicle Act, is this really an infraction?
