1991tealRSt-topGuy · 05-31-2004, 11:30 PM

****, this would be great considering my new ride

would be great but doubtful

McGreevey is a money sucking bastard

the more laws he makes, the more laws that are broken= the more money his government makes

1991tealRSt-topGuy · 05-31-2004, 11:33 PM

as a side note, when i had my camaro, i kept mine in the windsheild

got pulled over 3 times for it and finally the 3rd time recieved a ticket
it was pretty expensive too IIRC

Maximus · 06-01-2004, 08:44 AM

"Get her done"!!!

L98IROCZ89 · 06-02-2004, 03:52 PM

Front plate is the dumbest thing I have ever seen. Honestly, what is its purpose?

aaron7 · 06-04-2004, 04:28 PM

Wish there was a petition for this in Mass! I have never put my front plate on any of my cars, or got in trouble for it, but I too have heard that it is very pricey if you get caught.

injdinjn · 06-11-2004, 11:35 PM

The reason for the front plate is RED LIGHT CAMERAS.
They need the plate and driver in the same picture.
These camera installations cost about $100K. but they pay for themselves in 6-9 months, after that it's all profit.

raffi4 · 06-11-2004, 11:55 PM

i cant think of a single place i've ever seen in nj where there is a redlight camera.

Ive run plenty of red lights from newark to cape may and have never EVER gotten a ticket from a red light camera. And you live in Cali...wtf? Dont ruin our fun!

injdinjn · 06-12-2004, 05:43 PM

You should know by now that the Cancers start in Calif and spread easterly.

If there is a way to make money without overhead the tax collectors of the Peoples Republic of California will find a way.

camarors8992 · 06-14-2004, 01:04 PM

is it illegal in ny to not have a front plate in NY, too bad for them if it is

If I was driving in Newark, I would run the red lights too in my car.

VILeninDM · 06-28-2004, 01:21 AM

Yeah, in NY we are stuck with those. My bro-in-law got pulled over and he tried to convice the cop how stupid it would look on his vette. For whatever reason the cop didn't buy it.

Here's another reason for them to enforce front plates. The material for the paint they use is highly reflective which makes the car with front plates visible to the radar at a much longer distance. 2nd in reflectivity being the headlights and 3rd being the rims. I think this info is from radartest.com, but I am not sure.

camarors8992 · 06-28-2004, 12:07 PM

that sucks, that law is pretty gay and i have the bowtie grill on my car that doesnt have a front plate mount

less government is the best government

btw i run red lights in newark too (especially at night)

camarors8992 · 06-28-2004, 02:26 PM

I can't think of any in Paramus off the top of my head, but there are plenty along Bloomfield Ave between Bloomfield and route 46. Also in a number of spots in Oakland. I find myself constantly on the lookout for them.

PyRo9862 · 07-04-2004, 04:52 PM

Only the gov't could rig up a $100,000 red light camera system. I could get it up there for about $1,500.

raffi4 · 07-10-2004, 09:16 PM

just ****ing great i got pulled over in a damn mall parking garage because of no front plate. the ****ing cop was going up i was going down he turned around faster than i could even make it around the corner and pulled me over then him and the bitch *** security guard box me in like im gunna run. then he tells me license and reg bs and i say whats the problem he tells me no front plate and havent had your car inspected in 2 yrs. now i tel him i just started driving the car for 3 days and he said regaurdless it should have been done. i wanted to beat the **** out of this cop he comes back and says im letting you off because you just started driving and you live in town and then he tells me dont give cops additudew i wanted to say what ****ing attitude i have a right to explain myself but he walked away pretty quick. if he tryed to pull me over near the exit for that **** i woulda been out i woulda destroyed his ford v8 **** he woulda never even seen my plate.paramus cops have nuthin better to do then harass me over a stupid plate thats why rich kids get away with selling drugs cus the cops are to busy being dicks. sorry i had to vent that sombody needs to go threaten a senator or sumthin because these petitons arent doing **** and there aint no way in hell im putting a front plate on my T/A......

C4 Suke · 07-23-2004, 08:02 PM

raffi4, i thought parking garages/lots like that of a mall were considered private lots, and cops had no jurisdiciton to ticket you there... so he probably cudnt do **** anyway

camarors8992 · 07-23-2004, 10:13 PM

the cop was prolly just jelous that your in a nice built camaro and hes in his garbage ford
