Default Who is Anti front plate??

<~~~In Oregon it's against the law to be missing a vehicle's front license plate. i refuse to put one on my car. i would like to know how many other members knowingly break the law to have their cars look a little more coooooool? i break the law on this one and i'm damn proud!

In Kentucky they don't require front plates, I don't really care for them, one on the back is good enough

I, too, dislike front plates (esp on roadsters!). I think it looks GHEY! Police only seem to pull over imports.

I was pulled over on I-45 on my way back to college (Texas A&M) by a state trooper. He said he pulled me over because I needed to have a front plate on my car (I had replaced my front plate w/ a Metallica 'scary guy' license plate). Although the guy was really cool (he was young, probably a rookie. gave no ticket, just letting me know) I don't think that was the reason he pulled me over because I pulled up behind him in the fast lane on the highway and he was making everyone go around him. When I passed him, I looked at him and he did a double take when he looked at me. That's when I thought, 'here it comes'. I think he pulled me over because of what he saw, a brown mexican-lookin' dude in a black trench coat driving an integra w/ some packed book bags in the front seat. I guess that seemed suspicious to him... whatever?

On a side note, he noticed my radar detector (it was chirping cuz he was behind me) and he was like, 'what is that?' I was like, what? that? (kinda playing dumb but not really working). He said, 'Is that a radar detector? You know those things don't work.' I thought to myself, 'then why is it going off when you're behind me?' I must emphasize, he was a cool guy. One of the better cops that I've met out of the 3 times I've been pulled over.

Illegal to drive with no front plate here in Wisconsin; my front plate bracket is "broken" and the plate is now in the trunk. Will need a fix-it ticket before I put the plate back on.

I don't have my plates yet, but I'm planning on NOT using the front, though they're required here in Ohio. I've spoken with quite a few people who haven't used one for years without a problem. Whether an S2000 gets treated differently from a Camry remains to be seen.....
