Talking VA Front Plate - say bye bye!

I just learned this morning, that VADA (Virginia Automobile Dealers Association) is lobbying the Commonwealth to stop requiring front plates on vehicles registered in Virginia If VADA is successful 2006 may be the last year a front plate is required

The State/Commonwealth is leaning toward this request because it will cost less money to only provide one plate while they still charge the citizens the same amount - and we all know how much governements like more money! Personally I would pay a little more than I do to see this happen.

Opposed is law enforcement. They say that front plates help them identify criminals better - it is a not a matter of just traffic violations.

If you feel compelled to aid VADA, just send something to your VA State Officials.

But the front plate makes this picture that much better








Serious note though. Alex thanks for the update about that. If you might know where to get it or have an email address that we can contact regarding this that would be great
