I'll sign it, although it won't do any good.

If you want to try something that MIGHT have an effect, write an actual letter and snail mail it to a representative.

I've signed but I haven't had one since 1997 and I've never been pulled over.

My wife and I signed.

Now as Fan indicated, if you want the petition to have any teeth, start writing your state representative and complain about it. Ask me with your county and district if you don't know who to write. I have a copy of the Texas State Directory with everyone's name, their spouse's first name, address, phone, fax, occupation, educational information, committee info, office number at the capitol, religious affiliation, web sites when one exists and email when available.

Or buy your own;
Texas State Directory - $29.95 - ISBN 0-934367-47-7

The wife got pulled over last night for not having a front plate on her Jeep. Luckily she got off with a warning...what a joke...don't the police have more important things to do?

You better knock on wood... it sucks... I learned from a constable freind of mine last week that there will be increased "awareness" of non-moving violations through Memorial Day weekend.

So watch out for all those little things seat belts, taillights, and of course the infamous license plates.

I'm liking this thread more and more... haven't seen too many longhorns round the board...

Oh yes, and to remain topical - front plates suck. I don't run them and won't until I'm forced to.

I'm Renesis' little brother (20) and I drive a lightning. I have the same problem, and also don't have the plate on. I don't plan on putting it on, just keep it with me just incase. And I'm a longhorn...hehe

Hook 'Em Horns

I signed this thing a long time ago, we have the link going on the lightning boards
