I get it for everything. Got the tag light ticket at arundel mills (along with a front plate)

Thats why I get irritated with the popo threads, Im pissed at em too, but at the same time, its my fault...

The Arundel Mills cop was a total a$$ too.
i never checked but i don't think mine has a rear tag light either. i gotta check that as soon as i go outside...

is it a serious thing, or are they lenient about it?

No he was an arse. Really pissed me off talking down to me as if I were 18 and commiting murder. I counted 6 cars within sight of me with no front tags either, I was sitting in a parking spot, went and checked a couple, all from maryland.

I got a repair order which basically made me fix it and get it signed off within 10 days, the mechanic laughed when I told him why I got pulled over.

Why would I tell them that? I used the "The bracket is on order since this is a new bumper" speal a few times, then the "I just got pulled over and am doing it this weekend " speal, then just put it on to shut them up.
I used similar to this the other weekend. "Car was in a front end accident. I have the plate with me. Bracket is on back order." WHen the cop asked why I wouldn't just screw it into the bumper and I said "and scratch up my paintjob??" He agreed with me. I said I'd put it in the windshield and he said that wasn't good enough.

This was in Dorchester county.

Well considering I also got pulled over 3-4 times and got off from it, it should work. Thing is, I cruise on the highway, I dont see over 90 95% of the time, Ive gotten one speeding ticket in the past 4 years.
that's a total lie.

Where are you moving from? I kept the NY tags on my car and I don't run a front plate. I think as soon as they notice that I'm from out of state, they leave me alone... [knock on wood]
