Woman ticketed thousands of dollars because license matched numbers on ‘Star Trek’ ship

This is one of the stupider "50 countries in a trench coat pretending to be one country" things we have going on. There's no reason not to require plates on both the front and back bumper, especially when it's opening the door for confusion with fake plates on the optional bumper.
There is also no reason they can't dismiss front plate pictures as unreliable.
So many vehicles in those 20 states don't even have a front plate holder at all because they were either removed by the dealer or didn't come with them in the first place.
Yeah I bought a new car last year and it doesn’t even have a mounting spot. it’s not a big deal not having two plates I’m sure one of the other 600 cameras on the drive will get me.
For fun I looked up how I’d have to mount a front plate and it’s just gross. I’d have to drill holes into the front or buy a bracket that’d be lopsided.
Or just scrap double plates as an unnecessary and outdated thing.
No reason? How do you think those plates get made?
Front plates are bad for aerodynamics/fuel efficiency.
Source? It can’t be a significant amount
Yeah no. The thing here is that some cars are not designed to have a front LP, and you've got me fucked up if you think I'm going to drill holes in a piece of art.
