Well shit happens and i guess one of my rear license plate flew off on the thurway somewhere. It happened on Friday Night on my way home from work…

I go to the police station to ask for some kind of help with this…because the DMW was close and this is the only car i drive.

I go to the window and said “I lost one of my plate is there anyways i can get something to report it lost/missing? The DMV is close and i just dont want a ticket for a missing plate”

Mind you i have really bad luck with the missing front license plates…lol
So i learned my lesson and wanted something i can hand to a police officer when they pull me over for no front license plate.

Officer: "Are the license plate missing or stolen?
Me: “It fell off somehow on the thurway, Sir.”
Officer: “You have to be missing 2 plates for me to write you something”
Mind you this happened to me before and the other officer gave me a missing plate slip without a problem.
Me: “I was here before when this last happened to my g/f car and the other officer gave me a missing plate slip”
Officer: [gives me a attitude] “Im not the other officer am I? I cant do anything for you”
After that comment i left without saying a word…I didnt want to end up in the slammer…

Do i have to be missing both plate for me to file this report?

I just want to know so i know before i go ask the cocky fucks agian about anything.

Haha you shouldv’e grabbed your other plate and threw it far away and told him now both are missing.:rofl:

3

simple solution… take off other plate, report them stolen

4

go to a diff town, park in a parking lot, make other plate dissappear, call cops and say both plates were stolen at that location

done

edit: friends house works best, because theres like 0 chance of cameras

5

did you get the cops name?
If pulled over, explain to the cop what you did and that officer “dbag” wouldn’t help you out.

6

how do u lose license plates?

7

This is the 2nd time?

Use a screwdriver to tighten the bolts :slight_smile:

i’ll hit up the dmv tomorrow to get this shit solved.
It happens to me alot and i dont notice i have a missing plate until it to late to track down where it could be.

9

That’s shitty, he 100% did not want to do his job. I had that happen and I needed something from the police station saying I was missing a plate for DMV to even issue new ones.

10

fuck the police

11

i had my front one get lost in a snow bank and didnt know, got pulled over got a 90$ ticket i went right to the police station and got the form then got pulled over 4 more times that week with no tickets then went to dmv and prob solved

12

I dunno, I would have just said yes and gotten your get out of jail free slip for the time being.

13

city or town of tonawanda… casue i can see the city being dick heads about this but not the town

14

If the DMV was so close why didn’t you just go there instead of the police station?

15

just make one out of paper thats wht the dmv told my friend. because they have to make you a new one.

16

i think he meant it was closed :stuck_out_tongue:

or are you being sarcastic?
