Same thing happened to me Matt, and i just had to pay:( I thought it was a joke because you dont even have to prove you fixed it, broke ass Cali just needs that $$

Sorry to hear that Matt. sounds like a cheap shot by a cop having a slow day.

Not to add insult to injury but, its a legal ticket and you have to pay it, what is worse is that the law can actually cite you for having the euro plate on the car aswell. ( no matter if it reads the same as your actual CA plate. )

Basically the law says you are only allowed to have one registration number per vehicle, the number assighned by the State the car is registered in.
having a euro plate also attached to the car is technically illegal, no matter what it reads. The cops/judge can view this as being a seperate plate, meaning in effect you have two registration numbers on one vehicle.

Having a euro plate attached under your CA plate is also technically illegal for the same reason.

i'm not saying its clever...

Those fuckers! Haha, thanks Tony.

Cali is crazy strict but still we have the most number of illegal cars on the streets. That's why I keep both plates on my car even on the track just in case some stupid cop pops out in the back straight and give me ticket...haha.

Theyre bad up here too...

A euro plate is not a legal US plate regardless of what it says. Just pay the 40 bucks.

I see random housewives driving around all the time in their suburbans and minivans with no front plate any no one notices.

i have a 2010 silverado with 22's and a loud exhaust, no front plate. never been pulled for no tag, been driving the truck for 14 months.

i guess the officers tend to target the vehicles that are stereotypically driven by "street racers", and other miscreants.

i also have a 91 tercel, had no front plate for 1 week, and got a warning for it. car has wheels and tint, i know thats why i got pulled (tint is 12%, 35% is legal in md). i think i got a warning because i was super nice to the officer.


anybody ever heard of a corvette being stopped for no front tag? i bet its super rare.

After 4 no front plate tickets in as many months on one car and one on another, I decided it was better to just put the damn thing on. AFAIK there's no real way to beat that sort of thing, and even if you fight it the time you'll spend won't be worth it.

Happened to me when parked in front of a school. Now I rock the euro with my normal plate numbers and no cop has messed with me yet. Just the other day I passed by one clocking people and was also following a HP, nothing yet. But also my car doesn't look like a piece of shit either, not saying yours is.
