lol, “Third, unnecessary damage is sustained from minor bumper-to-bumper collisions, because the front mounting brackets on passenger cars can cause cracks and abrasions to the rear bumpers of the cars that they hit.” i highly doubt thats the reason the bumper gets cracked. maybe it was the fact that a 3000 lb. car moving at 55 mph just slammed into it? hmmm… ---

It’s not the money they make from no-plate tickets, it’s the money they make from being able to get a good radar signal on your from twice as far away. ---

they say it helps when crossing the border… but I cannot tell you how many times they asked me to get out of my car and read them my plate number…I thought the purpose of a front plate is so the border patrol can read your plate when you drive up.
