I've leave the plate on these days and don't screw with the lights unless it's legal. In other words, I don't make it easy for anyone to pull me over or have a gate guard give me some static. Life is easier today.

Put the top down, cruise, have a good time.

Siverhawk and Tiberious, I'm retired military and working here in Baghdad for the next 2 1/2 months. I can't wait to get home and enjoy life in the good ole USA. Silverhawk, I used to fit into quite a few of the reasons you pulled people over for, so keep doing what your doing because it saved my life.

Will do Sir, thank you for your service, and please be careful over there.

One of the good things about living in Michigan (no front plate), although I moved from Texas, so I know where your coming from...

Don't worry Vinman its not very likely that you would get a ticket for the lack of a front plate if your State doesn't have 2. My State has only one and I've never had an issue in all my years traveling out of State---just saying that it would depend on the wording of the statute in the State you are traveling in--so in theory it may be possible but not likely---I really don't have the time to look up all the 2 tag State statutes to confirm it.

I wouldn't really mess with the tag issue where I am because my State only has 1. But lets say for example someone comes thru DE from FL with window tint. In FL tint is allowed (at least to some degree) without any kind of waiver. My State statute says "any vehicle" operated upon "any roadway" in this State must possess a signed statement (waiver) from a licensed blah, blah, blah, so on an so forth to have tint. So yes in this case I could issue a ticket under my statute to an out of State vehicle, BUT I DON'T BECAUSE I FEEL ITS NOT RIGHT IF THEY ARE LEGAL WHERE THEY COME FROM AND ARE JUST PASSING THRU. PLUS IMO I THINK IT WOULD MAKE ME LOOK LIKE AN ARSE IN COURT if it were brought to light that the vehicle is legal where it is registered.
