I'll see your dumbness and raise you 1. I'm dumb for saving tickets, and obeying the law.

Saving money on tickets yet spending 70K on a car. Yes, it is all making sense now! I will never put a front plate on either of my vehicles.

I can see why someone would put the plate on and why someone would keep it off. There is no right answer.

No plate for me. My sales associate was well aware of that.

Yet in spite of all of this, in 20 years of driving without a front plate, I've never been pulled over or cited. So ultimately, you guys are worried for nothing, and don't know the law anyways...which is dumb for making decisions based on stuff you don't even know about.
It is $10 fix-it ticket... But I heard it's being raised to $25..
I'll still pay $10 each time not to have that ugly thing on.
