Russ,
That approach has been tried here several times, to no avail.

It is my opinion that the current enforcement is about revenue generation for the state and not about saving a nickel or two. The law states... and the troopers are going to start enforcing it. As the trooper said, they do not make the laws, they just enforce them.

Does anyone remember when they started enforcing the click it or ticket campaign? The law was in effect for quiet awhile before they really started to enforce it with vigor. Now it is about income generation and not necessarily about safety.

I agree the front of the cobra tends to look odd with the front plate, but it is because we have all become accustomed to seeing it without one.

I am not sure what the laws are if the car is registered as a 1965 or 66. Can the make you have a front plate if the car did not have one when it was built new? I do realize most are replicas, but would that even apply if it was registered like that?????
