Look, the law is the law. The front plate can be very important when trying to spot a felon by auto description, then verifying with the plate.
Child abductions or other things, it’s just a reasoned thing to have that plate there.
If a person doesn’t want to subject themselves to such a stop, keep the plates on.
If someone drives by your home and hits someone, don’t you want the neighbors to be able to check out the front plate?
It is reasoned to stop a guy and have this conversation with them.
I agree with having a plate on the front, if that’s the law, then have it. But really. Entire states, many states, I think MOST states, don’t have front plates, so let’s not pretend they are imperative.
