Please put your front license plate on

Gaiiden

I have yet to get stopped for not having my plate in front, and in one case it actually saved me. The only time so far I've been stopped in my 370Z was for going... well, we'll just say recklessly fast for a short stretch of open highway road at around 3am. The cop gave me a ticket for the license plate instead of the speed (I would have lost my license) - I guess because I was honest, polite, had no points, conditions were dry, there was no traffic and I did not carry my speed. Still I know how lucky I am. He also asked if my windows were tinted - I've had tinted windows on previous cars and have gotten that instead of a speeding ticket as well.

So it's nice to be able to give the cops options when they're willing to let you off the hook.

Speaking of tinted windows - do NOT drive through Marlboro or Freehold townships in Monmouth County if you can avoid it. Marlboro has pulled me over twice and warned me once for having window tint (ANY tint on front windows is illegal in NJ - you can't even pass state inspection). Freehold pulled me over once and actually handed me a court summons and I had to appear and show the officer there that my tint had been removed, along with the ticket and court surcharge. Marlboro you can just pay online.
