Hey guys,

I have not run a front license plate since I started driving. I only got hassled for it once, and all the officer did was ask where it was.

Since I bought the Audi, I refuse to run a big ugly WI Plate out front, and opted for a eurotag. I have no been hassled for it, as I beleive the officers in my area have better things to do. (Milwaukee) Are vanity plates illegal?

My question is; if I get pulled over for not having a proper front plate (Will most likely be in a town where cops have absolutely nothing better to do and need revenue like Green Bay), what are my arguments against the officer for it? I will flip my ****ing lid if I get anything more than a warning for the incident. Motorcycles, large trucks, and even government owned vehicles are not required to have a front plate, why the **** should I?



I've spent the last hour or so on DOT & DMV sites but nothing points out the law specifically, or gives me a Code where I can read what the law ACTUALLY states. [:(]

I never use a front plate but keep it in the glovey with some zip ties for an on the spot fix, just in case.

I have been given several "fix it" tickets on this over the past 12yrs or so but I heard our new Pres. had this in the works of law changes as it costs us an extra few million each year to make two plates instead of one.
