He also stated that it isn't his job to debate the penal code, but it is to enforce the law. I told him that that was fine and he could write me the ticket if he want's to waste our time and tax payer's money. He told me to just put it up in my windshield and he would call it even, so I did to avoid any further badgering. Just so that everyone knows, it only states that the license plate be displayed at the FRONT of the vehicle (windshield qualifies for that) and that I cannot be obstructed. This means that the letters and numbers be clearly visible and the word TEXAS can be read as well.
There is a law against having things on your windshield though. I had a discussion with an officer about that as well and stated that it should be illegal to put the inspection, registration, military base sticker, and TX Tag on it as well. He had nothing to say and stated that he was watching me.................lol!

Just as an aside to the last part. I think the reason for the tags being on the windshield was to prevent any chance of theft and probably to aid in visibility when you pass an officer head on.
Still though, stuff is tacky as hell...
