I lasted a week before being stopped in my state. I now run a Show N Go and love it.

By my count on a long walk the other day approx 1 out of 10 cars in Cal do not have front plates. Way too many for the police to bother with. Don't provide any other reason for them to want to talk to you and you will never have a problem.

I'm in California. The first two things I did when I got my new F Type home were to disconnect the engine start stop module and remove the front license plate and bracket.

I have not run a front plate on any of my cars since 1982. And only once was I cited. A motorcycle officer was running traffic enforcement in front of a nearby school and had a soccer mom pulled over to the curb. He saw me approaching, I was probably doing less than 20 MPH and he stepped out into the street, and pointed at the curb. He wrote me a "fix it" ticket for no front plate. I installed the plate, paid the $10 fine and removed it again the next day. For the few times that I received a speeding ticket in all those years the officers never said anything about not having a front plate nor added it to the ticket.

I suppose if you are being a jerk they can add an additional fine but the police don't seem to care for the most part. If I do receive a citation in the future I'll buy a Sto N Sho bracket.

Both my wife and I do not have front plates [I have a Sto and Sho bracket and the plate in the trunk]. Almost every nice car around here does not have a front plate either and the local cops just seem to ignore it. Same case on the freeways with CHP. The only time I get a bit uneasy is if I am returning from having a couple of beers. In this case, I am generally within a mile or so of my house and take the least traveled route possible. It would be horrible getting pulled over for the plate and then getting busted for having 2 or 3 beers over a few hours.

A friend of mine got pulled over for not wearing a seatbelt (mandatory in the UK but he was convinced he'd be burned alive in a car fire). Unfortunately, he was on his way home from a port tasting session so he ended up with a 1 year ban, points on his licence, and subsequent heavy loading on his insurance.

Here in the People's Republic, it's going to cost you between USD10-15K [actually they probably take Yuan] between the fine, the school, and your atty. fees [not to mention what's going to happen to you insurance-wise].

Although drunk driving is a fool's game, bars and restaurants are full of people doing just that. I am not sure what the right answer to this is, but causing an accident because of drinking irresponsibly is simply unacceptable.
