You know, I really wish Minnesota didn't require a front plate. When I lived in Arizona, they didn't require one, the for a short while the did (and cops were into busting us teens as we hung out on the main drag), then they went back to not requiring one.
I hate to admit it, but if I was law enforcement, I would want front plates. It's just that much more information made available in different situations. I have been driving without a front plate on one of my cars for over two years now. I did get a ticket once when a cop pulled me over for not signaling a lane change. (Who in the hell does anymore?? - I've given up on signaling because so few people do it). But anyway, yes, I'm sure it does vary. Unfortunately, Washington, where we're planning on moving does require front plates. Brian 83 240D 84 Saab 900 On 9/22/06, Tom Hargrave <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I'm sure it depends on the state. Alabama does not use or require a front plate & if you move from a state that does require a front plate, we don't even care if you leave your old plate on the front. I really don't understand why other states require a front plate. When's the last time you were pulled over by a police car in front of you?

I know, this probably varies by locale but I'm just asking for y'all's varied knowledge on this. Of course I don't want to put the plate there, but I'm going to be working to fix the mounting bracket, and want to know if I can get by with sticking the plate up in the windshield in the interim. I know there are upper and lower height limits for the mounting of plates, but that's about all I know on this.
