I'm pretty sure you need front plates.

yeah, legally, you need front plates....but that doesn't mean that i have one

 

[Guest]

mine fell off and is on my dash in the windshield

 

[hamill]

I haven't had one for allmost 2 weeks now.

Mind you...I also have a police report number as to why not

Its not so much that you need a front plate but that you are required to have 2 visible plates. I am speaking from experience as I got pulled over this summer for only have one and got a ticket. I was given 48 hours to put it back on and go a prove I did then they destroyed the ticket.

 

[rastaman]

so is it legal if i put two plates in the rear? :tongue:

 

[herekittykitty]

haha...2 rear plates?..worth a try

the reason i ask is that i always see pics of front bumpers..and they don't have the front plate...

i'm gettin the x-treme front, and don't want my plates to stick out like a sore thumb...

I replaced my front bumper just before spring began. I haven't had a front plate since that time. It's definitely NOT legal, but I think it's the type of thing that if a cop had nothing better to do, than he'll ticket you for it.

I'm going to play my odds.

....got pulled over twice today for no front plate. cops are on the rampage apparently (got a speeding ticket too....oops).....

I hate cops that only sit there eat kispy kream abit too much and pick on LITTE things. It happened to me once, but I m sure he picked on me. I was going stright on the road and a cop made a turn from another street and now he is ahead of me but He stopped waitting for me to past him and pull me over for not having a FRONT PLATE ON and I will be fine if he didn't say Bull to me. After that I file to face the judge and she void the $110.00 ticket ^.^ What a waste of time.

next time tell them it just fell off (carrying it in the car is good) and tell them you're going to put it back on as soon as.....
worked for me
