[Shotimes] Maybe (OT) Texas Shotimers - New Law

Tue, 23 Sep 2003 11:03:24 -0400

I did Paul.  Perhaps you didn't.  Read item #6 in the law.  According to
the state trooper that was interviewed last night on the local news, if the
frame even touchs the word "Texas" on the plate, they'll write you up. 
Most of the frames I've seen partially obscure "Texas" on the plates and
those that don't come very close.

Read the actual article. You can have a frame as long as it doesn't cover 
important parts of the plate or appear to alter the plate #.

Read the law http://www.capitol.state.tx.us/tlo/78R/billtext/SB00439F.HTM
It 
makes sense.
