Attention California members: Petition to eradicate front license plate requirement

air-cooledjbj · Thu, Apr-29-2004, 05:42:01 PM

Just click on the link and sign the petition. I'm sure a lot of you guys have paid a lot of money, like me, for fix-it tickets due to this stupid requirement. I've gotten 5 in the past 5 months.

Email this link to as many people as you know. I'm sure everyone in California, especially the car enthusiasts, will appreciate this.

Let's get rid of this bullsh*t!!!

Thanks guys!

I agree with Alex.

We may have a new governor, but the legislature is still the same nanny state bunch of liberal socialists that want more control over your life, not less. I choose my battles and this isn’t one of them.

HAHAHAHA... Cars are not designed for front license plates...and its California's responsibility to fix that! Restricts airflow and affects performance....then take it off at the track! Not like front plates are required there. Causes extra damage in minor accidents. Again, the designers fault.

I mean come on folks. You're gonna sign your name to that and expect people to continue to take you seriously?

Dont get me wrong, though I would love for this to happen...there are so many reasons why it wont....red light cameras are a perfect example. Oh..and the way the petition is written is another..

Another reason why it wont happen is because cops use the plate to shoot laser when speed clocking yer ass!!!! They shoot

for metal!! Trust me i know.... I still dont have my plate on the front....it saved me from getting a speeding ticket which is alot worse than a no plate ticket!!

We aren't required to have front plates in Alberta (Canada) and that hasn't stopped the red light camera, they just get you from the back instead. The powers that be say this is done for safety so you don't get the flash shot in your eyes, get blinded and then really cause an accident. Same with photo radar.
