Why do some States and other Country's require front plates

 If your getting pulled over, the license plate is right in the Cops face. ?  :shruggy:

So that the person you just rear ended while you were distracted by texting can capture the video on their rear mount camera.

Plate, car, driver, phone, all in one image for the court case.  :cheers:

Who has a rear mounted camera working while driving.?
Driver and Phone number does not mean the actual driver.
I think I get your sarcasm.  :2thumbs:

They want it there for the Red light cameras, roadside placed speed cameras, mobile license plate readers....Basically they want them on the car to use their artificial means to penalize, spy on or to capture you.
That is NOT sarcasm. It is also why some parking lots have signs stating to NOT back into the spaces against a wall. No front plate makes it impossible to garner that information.

ACUDANUT

  KD, I see your logic, but this has been a issue for well over 70 years. Long before modern day tech. we have today.

Ghoste

In Ontario they were dong it long before red light cameras came along.  My guess is so if they are waiting in ambush, they have a chance to get a plate as you speed by.

I know that I will seem like a paranoid guy but I hate the fact that the government spends so much time trying to find ways to shake people down and take their money.

Keeping prisoners busy, why make 1 plate when you can make two.

ACUDANUT

 KD, did you now my neighbors to the east (Missouri) only need one tag on the front of the their Truck.  As a Police Officer, this is crazy.  You can't get a plate Number unless you walk to the front of the Truck.  It's kind of like saying  "okay, you can shoot me now".
Crazy State and Federal rules need to fixed.

Hi ACUDANUT,                               24 July 2019

I like your new name. It has a nice sound when spoken, especially with a southern twang. If you do change it, I'll bet your threads will garner a larger share of views and replies.

You do have a certain charm and I'll bet if'n and when we meet in person we will become good friends.

Take care of yourself young lady.

Best Always,

I certainly wish they didn't require a front plate...or at least were lenient on how and where it was mounted.  The aesthetics of many cars are ruined with a rectangle up front.  I know several in law enforcement (city cops, deputies, even State Troopers) and they aren't fans either.  Supposedly doing away with them gets packaged with other stuff and shot down.  Not running the front plate usually greenlights a stop where the officer can then check for other, more serious offenses.  I know a few people that have been given tickets, but it is pretty rare given how often verbal warnings are given out.  This usually comes down to the individual officer and what pressures they have to generate revenue.

The thing that irks me more, at least about Texas, is that you have to have the registration sticker on your windshield.  The registration sticker, aside from leaving residue, has the plate number on it!  In addition to that, they added the county where your vehicle is registered.  That becomes a concern when you are travelling and thieves don't recognize the county, so they assume it is far away and target your car. They know it will be more difficult for non-locals to pursue legal action, comb pawn shops, and ultimately seek justice.  This happens all the time at hotels, malls, movie theaters etc.  I see having the county on the tag as for more detrimental than positive.

The rear plate should be more than adequate imo.

Nearly every other country in the World requires front plates....in the UK its been the law since 1903......long before anyone cared about driving offences and speeding!!!......surely it make sense to have them. If a car ran over a family member (just an example) and you could only see the front, how could you positively identify the car to the Police if he drove down a side street and was gone. The only reason to have plates is to identify the car in the event of an offence (or to check its taxed, safety tested and insured....all done automatically with number plate recognition in the UK)....so the more angles that's possible from the better. That said some cars look better without them!! The police here are have a bit of a crackdown on supercars without front plates (of which there are many in London)...those rich guys like to think they are above the law and just pay the fine. That's why the fine has been increased from £60 (which a Ferrari or Lambo owner could not care less about)....to a more thought provoking £1000 max!!
If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you !!

Ghoste

Once they get all the cars equipped with tracking chips this wont matter anyway.  Commit a crime, the satellite deducts the fine from your account or shuts you down until police arrive.

Michigan used to have 2 plates.

They saved a ton of money by issuing just one.   :Twocents:
I've never owned anything but a MoPar. Can you say that?

HANDM

Here in Washington state, we a required to have a front plate unless......
There's no mounting provisions or in other words, no place to put it.

I just bought my wife a new Challenger T/A and while it came with a front license plate holder in the trunk, I sure as heck aint gonna drill holes in the front fascia to install it so therfore, no plate!

If she gets pulled over she's gonna say that she doesn't own a drill and wouldn't be able to use it if she did!

I like paying LESS than $4.00 per gallon of gasoline for any one of my 6 cars and trucks. I like sunny days and endless roads to drive on at speeds that I deem to be appropriate. I detest a nanny state that dictates my behavior and my level of safety. When it comes to Government, I say, Keep the terrorists out, respond in a national emergency, provide for the truly poor and disabled and otherwise...leave me the hell alone.

Several years ago, the Kalifornia legislature actually passed a bill to eliminate front license plates as a cost-cutting action but when the bill reached the guv's desk the CHP objected and the guv vetoed the bill. It wasn't generally known then that license plate readers were in use by the cops.

In 2005 I had a stolen car recovered because it was spotted by a plate reader in an apartment parking lot; so I have mixed emotions about front plates.
Pardon me but my karma just ran over your dogma.
