I'm in cali and I put on the front plate and thank God I did. I was driving on I-5 north from San Diego to Irvine and this idiot 90 year old man in a K car wagon decides to slam on his brakes when there is nobody in front of him.
I slam on my brakes and the car was able to slow itself quite a but but I still ended up bumping him from behind. We both pulled over and my license plate took the whole grunt of the impact. The chrome frame was toast but no damage to the actual car. I was soooooooooo happy cause I was thinking I would have to repaint the bumper.
So front plate can come in handy sometimes.

RRBoy: is that the only reason why they pulled you over? usually, cops won't care about the front plate unless they pull you over for speeding or reckless driving or something.

RRBoy.........where at in Houston? I don't have the front plate either....bought 4 suction cups and put them in the little slots on the plate and keep it under my seat.....I'll stick it in the front window if a cop pulls me over and say, damn it keeps falling off when I hit the gas! A lot cheaper than the tow hook bracket and no holes.....

I live in Tx and got pulled over one day for a window banner at the bottom and top of my windsheild [sponsors on my old car]. I said OK, and he was being really nice and said he'd let me off on a verbal warning and walked around the car again and say I had no front plate and in its place had the cover on it with "Kiss My SS" [Monte Carlo SS] and he started to laugh, said it was creative, but needed a front plate and I said OK...never did, never bumped into him again, and now I have the G...no front plate...GReddy front bumper..."I'm sorry sir, I just wasn't sure where to put it? Is the windsheild, alright?" *Throws plate onto dash and smiles big at cop*

If you get pulled over, just apologize to the office, telling you were taking pics or something, and forgot to put it on. Tell him you will put in on as he watches, and he will prob not have a problem with that.

No front plate for me. Although I am 44, I think that I have that "Old-Fart-Look" to any peace officers that may look my way. When they see my hair and wedding band, I think it's a great deterrent to keep me away from any confrontations among them. BTW, **** on Crown Victoria's!!! 
The only thing I can't beat is that radio.
Double **** on Crown Vic's!!!

i've been driving all over houston for the past yr and no problems. until today, i decided to roll down my window and turn up the music real loud....
i got pulled over on eldridge and westheimer. i saw the cop eye to eye when he was on the opposite side of the road. and i saw him bust a U in my rearview mirror. i just had the feeling that the cop wanted to ruin my day right there and then he was going to pull me over. i guess i looked too cool for them in my G. heheh. and yea, i got ticket for no front plate, nothing else. and i still won't be putting the front plate on!!! damn those pigs...
