LOL hahaha, this looks similar to the ones I got when I had my Euro Frontplate on. My father was right, he said, I bet you won't get a ticket for the lack of frontplate while you are driving, but when you are parked. Get ready to get fucked!

The meter maids do that frequently in SF when they don't have any meters to monitor or when street cleaning is complete.

pardon my ignorance, what is the difference between a euro and US licence plate?
both display numbers on a plate, right?
in singapore, people get screwed when they apply licence stickers on the front end eg mazda mx-5, evo 8/ 9.

Well I am in new york, and it is a vehicle requirement to have both front and back license plates on at all times. If the front is missing and the back is on or, the back is missing and the front is on, that is considered a violation. So on the front of my E90 I had the europlate front Germany and on the rear, the new york on. I was at best buy and the ticket was on my front windshield when I got back from buying my dvd.

The first picture is my New York State plate, second is the europlate.

I know they're meter people but don't they have better uses for their time like helping bust drug dealers or child molesters or something. No front license plates, now that's a major criminal enterprise right there.

The state of Georgia sucks in many ways, but one thing that is nice is the state does not require any front plates. In fact, I hear Georgia is financially strapped and in order to save money, they make only one plate. Good luck fighting stupid tickets. Stupid tickets suck.:mad:

The states makes their own laws around plates and their lettering, display, etc. There are no "national" laws for license plates.

All of these major cities are losing HUNDREDS of dollars when their red light cameras can't accuse a violator with no front plates. I feel safe knowing that my city's officials are capturing the real criminals!

4851. Every license plate shall have displayed upon it the registration number assigned to the vehicle for which it is issued, together with the word "California" or the abbreviation "Cal." and the year number for which it is issued or a suitable device issued by the department for validation purposes, which device shall contain the year number for which issued.

5200. (a) When two license plates are issued by the department for use upon a vehicle, they shall be attached to the vehicle for which they were issued, one in the front and the other in the rear.

By the way, ALL of California's license plates are made by state prisoners at Folsom State Prison

THe front plate thing has been around since the begining of time. Before fixed cameras.

While it sucks, there are laws. You get two plates to put on your car.

Don't do it, then pay the money and quit whining!

Yeah, it kills the look and it sucks!

Meter maids are not cops. Their job is to find assholes who don't put money in the meters and think their cars and them are better than everyone else and don't have to comply! They have no power until you give it to them.

There are reasons why people scratch up BMW's, ever stop to think about that? Its a hiddious thing to do, "but I understand"!
