FINALLY got pulled over for my plate!

For those of you that have met me you probably know that I put my plate in my windsheild since the day I got my carback from the shop just to see how long it would take before I got pulled over for it... Well... exactly 5 months to the day I got pulled over. No ticket. Just a warning to have it on in 24 hours and the cop copied down my address and said he was coming to my house to check in 24 hours. Its been 72 hours and my car is still out there with it in the windsheild. I'm getting on it today though. Gotta get my butt in gear or I get a $110.00 ticket!

He got noticed by the police and the police car "escort" him all the way back to home........and the cop also copied down the address and said he was coming to his house to check in 24 hours......but he got no ticket just warning....haha so lucky he was

It is the law to have the front plates at the most outward part of the front bumper. Plus, having a steel plate just placed against the dashboard is dangerous during car movement and potential accident.

You don't want to end up with a plate in your forehead.

I wish I could morph into a gurl when I get pulled over. I got a no-front-plate ticket TWICE in the same weekend in Toronto when the plate was on my desk 400 kms away. cops

actually ricers... before the ricers were abundant, I drove around for 2 years w/o a front plate, never once got bothered. 1st thing I did when I got home was put my plate back on and pay my two tickets.

I should just switch my plates to 0O0OO00

"You don't want to end up with a plate in your forehead." It would work out great if it ever got impaled COP" name,lisence, OH wait I see your plate from here now just don't move while I jot it down

By the way, about 12-13 years ago I looked at getting GOOGOO, it's been my nickname for more that 15 years, they siad NOPE! They hadn't sold the name, but I guess the odd letter would screw them up!

Poor Quebec people are paying the same price as we are, but only getting 1 plate, that's a rip off!

Sometimes, I find the front plate looks alright. I don't know, I am on the fence on this issue. With or without it, I am ok.

Damn, so much for moving it off to one side, like I was planning on doing if I ever got boosted.
