How many people have a ticket for no front license plate?

I almost just got a ticket for no front plate, he pulled me over, he was sitting right accross from me at a turn. And I had a few beers in me, no ticket and he let me go, god I am lucky!!! 1st thing I did when I got home was to put the plate onand then have a thank god beer.

I got another one of these while I was parked at Grand Old Days in St Paul a month ago, got out of it a few days ago by stopping at the courthouse.

Re: How many people have a ticket for no front license plate?

I've always been afraid of gettin one so I had a nice little zip tie ghetto rig goin on. Here's my newest solution. A nice metal bracket. I'd love to help anybody out that may want help making one. Under $10 in materials.

I think I've gotten 2 of them. Never been pulled over for it but they'll usually let the speeding go and just stick me with the no front plate ticket.

Re: How many people have a ticket for no front license plate?

I had a ticket issued on my car like a parking ticket. No way of talking my way out of that one. It was because some one down the street parked wrong and I guess the ticket patrol felt he or she had to go through all the cars.

Put a license plate on, took pictures of it, went to courthouse and they never charged me.

1990 DSM never had the front license plate on them. Sucks
Plus I didn't like drilling into my bumper...

Re: How many people have a ticket for no front license plate?

when i was in mn i got a couple tickets for that. but once i put it on the inside of my windshield i didnt get harassed anymore. I always had the excuse ready for the police, "Its on the front of my car and can be seen from in front of my vehicle. In the law it does not state that it must be on the front bumper just seen from the front of the vehicle."

Pretty sure the book says nothing can be in front of the plate or covering it. And technically a windshield is in front of it. Just a little fyi, that's what I heard.

Re: How many people have a ticket for no front license plate?

I've owned my Evo for a year and a half and have never had the plate on the front. I've gotten pulled over once for it and got a verbal warning. I also have tint on a black car, never once been bothered for that or for my loud exhaust. Driving like a grandma pays off.

Re: How many people have a ticket for no front license plate?

i got pulled over for tint in my corolla on the 4th, doing 60 in a 55 following someone that was doing 70 in a 55.

Cop pulls a u-turn says " from my experience you have about 15%" puts the thing on 30%. Cops are dick heads, needless to say i am making all of my vehicles straight by the law, there has to be some reason i keep getting fucked with and its not my driving.

Re: How many people have a ticket for no front license plate?

I had only a few beers while golfing, nothing wrong with that, there was a slight possibility that I would have blown .8 which is like 1 1/12 beers, gay!! I got lucky, I don't know what the deal is but I go a month without seeing 1 cop, then in the past 3 days I've seen like 10 cops, hopefully everything dies down after this weekend.

311evo, someone must really hate you, how does anyone get a ticket for a 311 sticker, WTF? 4 no plate tickets and after the first one you still didn't put it on, you sir, are a bad ass! A poorer bad ass I might add.

Turbotalon1g, I bet the tint is what is causing it, it gives a cop a reason to pull you over. That is bullshit that they come after you instead when the person infront is 10mph faster, I hope you didn't get a ticket!

98gsx, was that a mirror or did you flip the pic, it looks backwards. Where does the bracket for the plate mount to?

Re: How many people have a ticket for no front license plate?

Haha i drive very grandma-ish when i see them, or when im in town in general, but as soon as either state patrol weber, or pregler see's me, its a 3-in-1 ticket guaranteed. the reason i havent fixed anything is because when they give me the tickets, they'll tell me the shpeal about how ive been getting these for over a year and havent done anything about it, then they procede to ask me when i will fix the violations. i reply "i'll fix the violations as soon as you fix your profiling, or at least until i see you pull over a vet' for no front plate, or a muscle car for loud exhaust."

i do hate giving money to the state, elecric cutout ftw (soon)
