The plate on my truck is unreadable. They had a bad batch of paint or something. There is a link I can click to order new plates free of charge. Nah, I’ll keep my unreadable ones. Maybe I’ll start using the EZpass lanes now. ---

Nah, I’ll keep my unreadable ones. Mine were the same way, I went to the DMV and swapped mine out with new ones. I didn’t want the chance of the hassle of getting pulled over for that reason. ---

It’s mostly funny because a fake plate is a felony and I bet no plate or a stolen plate isn’t a felony :lol: ---

I know a guy who uses a home made plate in Texas… long story about a Constitutionalist. - - - Updated - - - > [@LZ](#): > > It’s mostly funny because a fake plate is a felony and I bet no plate or a stolen plate isn’t a felony :lol: It makes me think about Safety Manuals, if you don’t have one at your company it is like a $4000 OSHA fine. If you have one with more than one error in it you end up paying tens of thousands in fines. So we got rid of ours… j/k ---

Its pretty funny down here (Tx), you can get temp plates over the internet, and print them out on your computer. Also all the new car dealers print their own temp plates on paper. You see hoopty rides with the temp tag fixed to the back of the car, and the HP inkjet ink running all over it. I guess thats still legal, you carry the other half of it in the car with you.
