Default front liscence plate*everyone please look*

I was looking for specifics about the liscence plate laws in California, and came across this online petition to get rid of our front liscence plate. Petitions such as this has been successful in other states, and I urge everyone to please sign the petition at the following link...

CA petition http://www.petitiononline.com/caplat...ion-sign.html?

Jersey Petition http://www.petitiononline.com/njplat...ion-sign.html?

MD petition http://www.petitiononline.com/mdplate/petition.html

I know everyone hates the front plate, instead of complaining about it, lets do something about it!!!

Thank you,

John

Yeah I signed one like this for MD. I came from DE where you don't need them. Front license plates suck.

Do they really care about this law? My mom has been driving around without the front plate for years, and I see cars without them all the time.

IWantAtC, i started a different post regarding this question, and i guess that they actually do care about it. I was told that people have been pulled over specifically for it, pulled over for speeding and then cited for it, etc. Maybe the reason that you mom hasn't been pulled over is that she doesn't draw attention to herself while driving, or maybe she's been lucky. Who knows, i just want to get of it so i dont even have to worry about it.


jlaznlover, damn you!! You are a lucky bast**d to not have to have front plates. Thanks for signing the petition thought.

As much as I agree that the front plate doesn't fit the style of most cars, I think its value is far more important than its look. Good luck on trying to overturn the system.

Just wondering, what value does it serve, we already have one in the back, why do we need 2?

IMO, online petitions are a joke. There's no validity, the fact that you signed the NJ one just reinforces this.

They won't get rid of the front plates because of the reason they require them - REVENUE. Do a little research into camera enforcement programs and you'll see the rea$on$ why we'll retain them... Sorry to be a wet blanket, and again, it's JMO...

I'll add marylands petition and sign it, but Im not so sure about the ashley simpson petition though. As long as there are pre-teen girls alive, geffen records is going to keep ashley "singing" to rake in all of their dough.
