Does the police have nothing better to do than pull me over for no front plate.

Had a great midterm, probably pulled an A easily, I was looking forward to a great day. A spotless driving record now tainted, and a good day gone bad.

"Fix-it" ticket? Even if not, you can argue that away in court if you fix it.

Default it's not a moving violation and shouldn't affect your record.

tell them you were waiting for the bracket on order from audi and maybe they'll give you a break. zip tie it to the bumper to get it taken care of. or just order a spare license pate insert for the front bumper and you can be legal when you want and look good the rest of the time.

Default Got one of those at the O'Hare parking lot while I was out of town.

Nothing better for the Chicago police to do than troll a $25/day parking lot looking for missing front tags.

It does bother me, because I was trying to save up for the TTDA! Now I'm out another $100.

Default I'll zip-tie it to my lower grill when I go in, hopefully they'll let it go, but my friend was fined

also, and they didn't reduce it much. It was around 70 dollars after court. I knew this car might cost me, but when I wasn't even speeding... give me a break. Shouldn't they be looking for ricers with blue lights and blue turn signals?
