There are a lot of low life punks around who would thank you for making it easier to steal the plate. Just give it a good yank and off it comes.

Congrats on knowing how to talk to a cop. I got pulled over doing 100+ in my old Mustang. I gave the guy the old "yes sir, no sir, I'm sorry, this car has a lot of power and I've only had it a while and didn't realize how fast it goes blah blah blah." He let me off with a warning. I got a couple of other tickets. It was red after all. You can't talk your way out of all of 'em. As an old fart who's been around a long time I say "why draw attention to yourself?" Go along with the little piddly-arse rules so they don't find something really wrong they can screw you over for. Like the medicinal herb in the little box behind the seat . If you're smart you keep your pot license there too.
