Arrow got slapped with a ticket tonight for....

Okay, so i finally have my S2k back and decided to head out to Wantagh for some pizza and beer with a few of my salesman buddies. Around 12am we walk out of the bar and we're standing by my S talking. I notice something tucked under my wiperblade on the driver's side. Without even touching it i knew what it was... it was pink and folded in half. So i grab it and sure enough... it's a ticket for no front plate. Now I was not on a main street, and i was in a parking lot. Some Nassau cop must have been rollin' by and saw my car. Stupid ticket is $90 no less. And to top it off, I had a Suffolk PBA badge in the windshield above my reggie. The cop HAD to see it when he was putting the tix under my blade. Not really complaining, as i am well aware of the risk i am taking for this by not having front plate. But i never thought i'd get snipered in a damn parking lot.

not really. they can get you while you are parked, even if it is right in front of ur house. As long as the car is on the road, you have to have it on. Sorry to hear it though Phil but i m glad you got ur s2k back!

You can take it off for shows in a private lot somewhere but if its on a public street or lot it needs two plates. Needs to be mounted on every NY state registered vehicle.
