IOWA: Abolish Front Plate Petition

Yeah, that sounds like a more promising approach, I'll start working that angle.

If it helps, Senator Fulton in Nebraska is behind LB416. Didn't get far enough this year but should be back in 2010 for another go.

The only thing a front plate does, that I can tell, is advertise the state and give troopers a reason to pull you over to check for something more serious.

I have a front plate, using the hide-away plate mounting system but I'd like to remove it.

it's so when u meet the copper doin 100+ their cameras will get ur plate, that way when u decide to floor it and they don't catch you they have a way of finding you.....atleast thats the only good I could see from one
