[QUOTE]Originally posted by mwy23 i got my ticket in the city.

 

just the plate. that was the ONLY reason why i was pulled over. i was just driving and a bike cop going the opposite direction comes back and pulls me over.

 

i put the front plate on tonite and dude it feels like putting those rope thingies on a wild horse... the taming of the shrew. so i ended up taking it back off. i'll risk it. if i get another one then i'll put it on again.

but then i do abhor that feeling when a cop is looking at you and your car and you just are wishing he'd go away and not pull u over.

sending u a PM regarding another matter... somewhat more important.

 

too young ......

 

i know you're making fun of me, but it's weird how i can't help but chuckle at it myself reading over what i just wrote

 

 

I haven't run a front plate since two days after I received them. My solution has been to take a velcro visor mount CD holder, wrap it around the plate and put it under my seat. If I get pulled over for not having one, I can simply put it in the front window (the cd holder keeps the metal plate from scratching my dash) and explain to the officer that I was in an accident and they never replaced the front plate mounting bracket but I have one on order from the dealer. If the officer asks why I don't keep it on the dash at all times, I simply explain the concept of aerodynamics as it relates to lightweight, flat, metal objects when the top is down and that having my license plate fly out of my vehicle could cause a more serious incident to other drivers on the road than if I just keep it under my seat.

 

If it matters, Ron had his in the front window (mounted using suction cups) and that still didn't fly either to the cop or in court.

 

here is a link to another thread about front plates;

I printed the WA state law that is linked there and I keep it with my registration, I haven't been stopped but if I am I'll show them the front plate law. It is not cut and dry, the way it is worded I believe it is obvious our cars are exempt.

 

What makes you think that our cars are exempt.......?
