[HEMEEE]

No front plate on my C and I never ran front plates on any of my 'Vettes, streetrods or other cars since my '64 Malibu SS way back in the 70's. Hubby runs plates only on his truck, because he drives about 2300 miles per month, but not his streetrod.

Only stopped/ticketed once in over 30 years, by CHP about 3 yrs. ago on I-40 headed to Laughlin. He had someone stopped at roadside when we went past and I saw him check us out in his side mirror as we went by. Hubby was driving my "Arrest-Me-Red" Corvette and I told him that guy was going to come after us. We had spotted him early and slowed so hubby said what for, we're not speeding... "no plates" says me... and there he was behind us with pretty flashing lights and his little ticket book and crayons in hand. Took the ticket to our local PD and they didn't even want to see the car, just signed it off, probably because it wasn't their dept. that issued it.

I think those of us that don't run front plates can expect more problems as road cameras become more prevalent since they can't ticket you if they can't identify you. I don't break too many laws any more at my age, but on this issue I'll remain a rebel.... at least until the next time, hopefully I'll make it through another 30 years!
