Default RE: No Front License Plate Topic

I got a euro plate and had a cop bust a U-turn to pull me over for it. Instead of having to pay a fine, I was pulled out of my car, handcuffed, and arrested and taken back to the station. My license was suspended at the time..however I had privileges and was leaving work, but was working outside of my listed work times. So $93 bucks doesnt sound to bad now huh.

I still have my euro and have passed countless cops in the same city, and many others, and have not had any encounters. That cop must of just been having a bad day.

My opinion on the topic, it is a ridiculous law! Why? Because it is one of those laws that is only enforced when a cop "feels like it". I work at a car wash and 80% of the cars we clean are Audis, BMWs, and Mercedes. I can safely estimate that maybe 1/25 of those manufacture cars have a front license plate. Yet do cops bother to pull over any of these middle-age men/women for this reason? Never.

I would've done the same thing for your euro plate. It's just an excuse to have your plate number run. Euro plates are for cars driven IN Europe! If you are going to put a plate on the front, put the legal one on! And don't drive with a suspended license!
