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. ---

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 ---

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. ---

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. ---
