Ah, VC 5200 and Lake County with the NOBBC....(sung)
"Meeeemoooooooriiieeees!"
I have HEARD, but cannot find it in print, that the fine on this has gone
up (this $178 may be the new fine?) and that it is now a stoppable offense. In
the past, it was a "fix it ticket" that was not a primary cause of a stop by
law enforcement. Another words, IF you were caught speeding, and the officer
noted your lack of front plate, he'd write you up. But he wouldn't STOP you
simply for lack of a front plate with all else being legal.
Anybody know anything about this possible change? I can't find it online,
so I'm thinking it's just talk.
I have NOT had a front license plate on any of my vehicles in thirty
years. OK, my old 62 Mini Cooper had the UK plate up front, CA plate on the
back. I was never bothered by leo's on that one.
I have no front plate on my 07 Mini Cooper S. But if it' going to cost me
over two hundred dollars (you know it's going to be way over 200 dollars when
they put the ADMINISTRATIVE FEES on top of that $178 fine) I'm going to put on
this trick mount I have that allows mounting on the tow hook mount in the
bumper, rather than drilling and mounting an ugly license plate permanently.
Frankly, with the CA budget in ruins, I'm surprised we're not saving the
cost of pressing those plates and going with a single rear plate only. Lots of
states don't require a front plate.
