Been pulled over 4 times for no front plate. First time was a Tx state trooper. I informed him I had the plate in the car and thought it was only legal if on the front bumper and he said no as long as it is visable. The 3 other times were near my neighborhood where the cops patrol. I did have the plate inside on the windshield but since that is not normally where they are they pulled me over anyway. I guess they just look at one place and none others. I bet they would have never noticed if the wife was flashing them or something
