So, what laws do you anarchists and criminals obey, and how do you decide?

It's only a crime if you're caught?

I guess it depends on how deeply ingrained we are with guilt and fear of the consequences.

Looks like you've found an effective way to distract them from having no front plate...

My son just got his license, drove to school and parked on the wrong side of the street. Legal parking spot and all, just had the car facing the wrong way. That ticket was $54 also!

I had a red '99 FRC and was stopped three times in 4 years just because there was no front plate. I sold it in '03, bought a black 2003 Z06 and haven't been stopped once..............

Default Is it just a rumour NJ is getting rid of Front Plate?

I don't run with one and so far so good. No warnings/tickets.

I did hear NJ was thinking about dropping the front plate....anyone else hear this?
