I've been plateless since I bought the car. It didn't come with a bracket so I just put it in my front window. Lol
|
NeVeR !
|
Im switching back to a MI plate in a few weeks when i get back from Iraq for leave.
|
no need for front plates in GA ; )
|
After getting stopped twice in a couple of weeks, I put my plate back on. It's $48 here in New Jersey and the local police are keeping an eye on me now, trying to crack down on my own personal crime wave.

I never have liked the look of having the front plate on my car. Be that as it may, here in Oregon there just isn't a way to legally get around it. Thousands and thousands of stories exist about 'running for XX number or years without' or 'pulled over XX times' exist. It all a roll of the dice and personal choice. Wondering if the cop I just passed is going to decide to bother me while I try to come up with a creative excuse just isn't worth it. I have better ways to spend my time.
The answer - run a front plate. It does not statistically reduce your chance of getting laid. |

i think it's because the rx8 looks so natural without a front plate that cops mostly do realize it lol's
|
^like Corvettes
|
I got a ticket so after I crashed my front bumper I just drilled holes and have it ziptied on underneath the driver side oil cooler hole

In Texas they cannot pull you over for not having a front plate, they have to stop you for a moving violation.
|
^fuck texas ;)
|
I've been plateless in WA for the last year. I actually got a speeding ticket the other day and the officer was super cool and didn't write me a ticket for the plate (he also gave me a ticket for 65 in a 60 instead of the actual speed I was going).
|
^must be the RPF1s ;)
|
Here in Illinois, I have never received a ticket for not having on the front plate. I have received written warnings while a speeding ticket was being written. I put it on to avoid that hassle. You may catch a officer on a bad day and he could write you for it.

Yeah, I was born in San Bernardino, sister just moved back from San Jose a couple years back and I spent time in school in San Diego in Navy. Can't say that I miss it much though in terms of living there but it is nice to go as a tourist. |
I run without one and have only received a warning once.
You can however apply for an exemption from the law in WA: Revised Code of Washington (RCW) 46.16.240 states in part, “The vehicle license number plates shall be attached conspicuously at the front and rear of each vehicle . . . PROVIDED HOWEVER, that in cases where the body construction of the vehicle is such that compliance with this section is impossible, permission to deviate there from may be granted by the state patrol. . . .” A waiver is only issued if it is not possible to affix a front license plate due to the body construction of the vehicle. Therefore, if there is a license plate bracket made for the vehicle which may be affixed to the vehicle allowing for the font license plate to be displayed, you will be required to install it on your vehicle whether or not it requires you to drill holes. If after researching you cannot find a license plate bracket that will work for your vehicle, you can apply for a front license plate waiver for your vehicle. These waivers are looked at on a case by case basis based on the original manufactured version of the vehicle and its ability to affix a front license plate. To request a front license plate waiver please write a letter articulating why you feel you should be exempt from the law, include a picture of the front of the vehicle, your license plate number, vehicle identification number (VIN), vehicle make and model, and any additional information you feel would outline your case and send to: Washington State Patrol Equipment & Standards PO Box 42600 Olympia WA 98504-2600 Once the letter is received our office will research the availability of license plate brackets for your vehicle, review your case, and send you a letter with the decision. |
