One thing I’ve seen are plate covers that absorb infrared. The cops like aiming their lasers at the front plate because it is big, flat and reflective. If they get no reading it might be too late to reaim before you’re past them.
You might check with a local attorney before you waste any more time or money. Good luck.
“youre looking at maybe thirty dollars a plate if personalized.”
That’s peanuts compared to Ohio! A personalized plate renewal fee is over 100 bucks a year! Renewal of a regular plate is something like 34 bucks.

Any criminal planning a large-scale heist is going to visit a shopping mall and exchange plates with another vehicle of similar make and model. They are only meaningful among law-abiding people in all reality.

They are ONLY meaningful to the ever-$$-hungry GOVT.
It’s thirty dollars for the plate plus registration which like Ohio comes to almost a hundred. Veterans are not cut any slack on any veteran promotions WA does.

Myth Busters already busted that crapmyth.........
IIRC, the reason that they blur the passenger was because someone got the photo ticket where the passenger was not his wife...
No, but they have strict rules about them. They can’t obscure the state name even slightly, which is typically between the top mounting holes, so the frame end up having to be pretty minimal. Stupid law if you ask me, because half the states write the state name in some God-awful trendy font that you can’t read anyway. But we dare not obscure it, even partly, because the cops want to be unable to read it because of the font, not because of the frame.
He’s full of crap about the obscuring issue, but I agree that being from a remote county is neither probable cause nor RAS.
Groucho’s gonna be in court a lot!
This is a great law. I wish Pennsylvania would do the same thing. I have seen plastic coverings which obscured the plate so badly that it could not be read from 10 feet away and the cops ignore it here in Pennsylvania. There is no viable reason for those covers and also the plate covers that obscure the state name and other information.
Everyone here is approaching issue incorrectly- if the problem is the camera, necktie the camera
Not the "Do Not Remove" tag!
Yeah, they did that in Florida a while back. It is the only reason I’ve been pulled over before.
