Dam you guys pay that much for fixing tickets? We pay $10 here in Cali!!! LOL...
I like to drive fast and therefore take don't get notice approach to cars.
I therefore have a front plate, don't use a radar detector, and will never own a bright red car.

No front plate since the M-tech conversion. I have the Skin bracket installed which is used/recommended by a few members in here. I just keep the plate in the trunk, in case of being pulled over (knock on the wood) and my excuse will be: "Sorry officer, I'm actually on my way to Homedepot to find a replacement screw."

Don't you guys get ticket for not putting your front license plates? Just curious cause I've gotten a ticket before for not having a license plate.
Here n M.D. u are suppose to have it on, but I have went with out mine on all of my cars for years. I may go years before I get pulled over, usally by a rookie cop trying to make points.

you guys across the pond are so lucky regarding licence plates, we have massive ugly yellow ones on the rear, and the same oblong ones up front.

i saw a cop program on cable somewhere in the USA and the guy did not even have a licence plate on the back?? is that legal?

our letters/numbers have to be 4 & half inches tall (in black) but the one good thing is we have cool personalised plates
if you have enough money you can have any that are available/for sale.

best i ever saw was 2 rolls royces, one very old (40's) and 1 brand new, both in yellow and black following each other
the old roller had the plate ....1 AM 1 and the other had....RU 12
guy in our town has AK47 on a range rover.

i thought that was cool.

I received a no front plate ticket a week ago in Chicago. They ticketed me while the car was parked.
