lol i can tell you from personal experience that its 100% illegal to have no plate in toronto. I've been pulled over 12 times for no plate. a couple of those times i literally had the ticket from the previous time so the cop just let it slide. of the times i did get a ticket, coincidentally its been all women cops that don't let it slide. the dudes kinda nod their head understandingly and just say "kk just get it done asap"

Thats not what im asking though, what i asked was hide-away plates that can move from visible to not. Im almost certain those are even more illegal because you can choose when and sometimes which plate is seen

which plate as in multiple

I actually saw this on youtube someone set it up to have two show'n'go plates so they could switch, that is even worse then no plate IMO

I can't see the fine being any different. If u get caught with it hidden....don't be that guy that decides to lower it after being stopped
Take the fine and don't say anything

The whole point of having the show-n-go is to have the plate visible when driving, then hidden when at a show. The likelihood of an officer noticing the plate is on an actuated arm is slim to none unless you give him/her a reason to inspect it.

true

I am the kinda dink that would use it to not have it up at all, unless in a "downtown kinda area" cause otherwise I don't think they would bother me out here, like I said lots of cars in my area no front plates

my friend with audi has show-n-go and I asked him if he drives with it down he said almost never and then said pretty much exactly what you posted this was years ago when they were still "new"

I more or less made a custom mount for my front plate so I'm ready for when I get that first no plate ticket. Flashy car = unwanted attention from the fuzz.

its dumb cuz i don't consider my car flashy and yet i get rediculous police attention. its never when im cruising around or even spirited driving, its always when im out late nights going to get a coffee going at or even very sightly under the speed limit with my revs just about stalling (so as quiet as possible). I dont get it. i hang out with friends in catless slammed, cambered neon wrapped cars with boost that enjoy drag racing on the 407 and out in sauga that 90% of the time love weaving around traffic... and yet they never get tickets... wtf?

i've been pulled over and the cop walked around my car looking at everything, i rolled down my window and asked why i was pulled over and the cop looked at me and walked back to his car and left without saying anything. i made a note of his badge info and licence plate/car number. the last time i got a no plate ticket (last week) i watched her pull up beside me and stare me down, then inch forward to check my plate. there was NO ONE around me so it wasnt like she had a reason. 10000000% looking for an excuse to pull me over. just my shitty luck that i hadn't yet zip tied my plate on so she got lucky

whatever, its over now. i now have nothing anyone can hassle me for.

I think that is wishful thinking some areas in the GTA have d!ck head cops IMO. If they want to pull you over they will the can pull anyone and everyone over they want all they have to say when they come up to the window is it is a roadside check for drinking and driving which is BS IMO

Ey Ire,
If you've been pulled over that many times, your license plate # is on file. Any cop that runs your plates if they r behind u will 99.9% pull u over.
This same thing has happened with my brother with his car.

Get new plates.

I have a feeling I'd get pulled over for my 15% tints as a reason.

If it ever happens, should I just roll my windows down immediately or is that too suspicious.

Also, is there such thing as accelerating too fast to the speed limit? 95% of the time I accelerate quick after a light and I never day dream, meaning I go as soon as its green. I feel like its safer when I have the road all to myself. No one would be able to catch up to me unless they are speeding to do it. (What if a cop was behind me in this case)?

Tint should be fine. Just roll all windows down if you see a cop.

Accelerating like that always is asking for trouble. Plus it's no fun doing it all the time if you ask me

As long as your exhaust isn't screaming to the gods you "should" not "shall" be ok.
As for the heavy tint..... Its not like show n' go.....u can't hide that
