[QUOTE="OriginalToken, post: 1275301, member: 27465"] CA requires one, and I have been pulled over and warned for not having one. Although I have not been ticketed myself for this I know several people that have been. It is totally the officers call, some don't care about it, others see it as another reason to interface with you that day. Some agencies push enforcement, or at least contact, and others don't want to deal with it. T![COLOR="Red"] [SIZE=1]---------- Post added at 07:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:46 AM ----------[/SIZE] [/COLOR] Most states (I think it is 31), and almost all other countries, require both a front and rear plate, and this requirement often far predates any war on drugs. For example in California the front plate requirement goes back to 1911, and other states require both a front and rear plate as far back as 1906. There are various reasons given, from parking enforcement (one of the original reasons, often either a front plate was required or a regulation for nose in parking only was on the books, nose in parking might be a problem in the early days, when reverse gear was less common) to stolen vehicle recovery. This argument comes up often in every car forum I am part of, and it almost always comes down to the same things said in each forum. People often don't like them, they think they look ugly / tacky / cheap, but the reality is they are a requirement (in most places). And you don't have to like them, but you do have to run them, or be prepared to possibly pay the "no front plate" tax. T! [/QUOTE]
