    When I went to register my car after buying it they asked me if I had both plates, I said no so they gave me an entirely new license plate number, I still don't run the front plate. I've been driving without one since last July and have never been pulled over (knock on wood)

      i've played that game and lost too many times in west LA. other parts of CA you can get away with it.

                  I ran euro plates with my Australian registration number on them for over 3 years before I received a ticket for "false plates", only $100.. So I then kept them on for another 4 years before getting another ticket from the same police officer! This time I was forced to remove them :/

                      Im old but I dont understand this. All youre doing is giving the cops a legit reason to pull you over and fuck with you. But my kids drive around with tail lights out and crap and wonder why they get pulled over. If your car is 100% legal you can get away with much more
