I moved (escaped) from Kalifornistan to a freer state, and they only give you one plate here. No front plate required. However, after seeing a LOT of dashcam footage of hit-and-run drivers, I think all states should require front plates.
I live in Virginia and two plates are required here too. It’s really striking how many Tesla drivers think they’re exempt from that law. Generally, cops here won’t pull you over just for that-but if you get stopped for something else, you won’t get the benefit of the doubt and you will get a second ticket. (Then you have DC. If your home state requires two plates and you only display one, DC will ticket you because DC law requires two plates and exempts people from states that only issue one.)
San Mateo DMV, under $30 to replace plate. Just walked in waited, and waited then easy as can be handed off old and got new- old as plastic coating on back was peeling off- got warning and not the $120+ ticket, and then pay for same plate. Everyone has a reason- Range Rover no Drivers license plus would have been fun to see it towed tho'. Nice seeing ya out and about Stanley R'
You should come and do some videos in NYC, you _would not believe_ what people are getting away with here. No front plate? Try no plates at all, parked on the sidewalk, in front of a cross walk
In many cases they put the plates in the window so they won't get stolen off the vehicle. It's illegal but because it's rarely enforced, they'd rather take their chances than deal with having to pay for replacements.
I hate front plates. They make cars look stupid, and when a car is getting pulled over or monitored… you’re always able to see its rear plate because people aren’t driving backwards down the road. If they’re fleeing a scene, they’re driving away. The rear plate really only matters. There’s very few situations where the front plate makes sense, and most of those situations could be solved with better camera angles.
Yeah I'm not drilling into my 100k car plus the cop is pulling you over from the back anyway to see the rear plate and registration sticker which the front doesn't have, and the whole they can use the front plates to find suspicious cars is bs in my opinion, if the car is already suspicious enough to get your attention you're going to get behind it anyways to follow it and run the plates further making the front plate useless and just about every toll roll and traffic camera has the cameras pointed towards the back of the car passing again making the front plate useless
People will be like “ it’s the law “ yeah a ridiculous rule made up by the higher ups and we just follow it because “ it’s the law” front plates are dumb
I had to sign a form at Toyota that said I acknowledged that there was a mount for a front license plate on my Tacoma. I notice there's no mount on the first vehicle stopped. I wonder where the owner is going to mount it, drill through that composite bumper? I see many cars with the same problem.
Most vehicle manufacturers understand that some states only issue a single plate. When I lived in Kansas, we were only required 2 plates if it was a vanity plate. Moving to Texas, I was required to add the front plate. I bought the mount from the dealer, and paid them to install the mount - the bumper has the mounting points molded into it, and it only takes a quick drill to open those holes up, and in my case, rivet the mount into place. In the three vehicles i bought since moving to Texas, the dealer installs the mount as part of their "delivery" process if they weren't already on it from the factory. Others may have hidden mounting hardware that allows the bracket to be attached without puncturing the surface. And yes, I see many Tesla's driving around Texas sporting front plates (and a quick search says the mount is attached with double-sided tape).
I never have the front plates on my car with the except of my last one. I bought it used and didnt bother removing it. Im not installing one on my new car. I know its the law but ill continue to roll thr dice. My Tesla looks better without out it so its not going on there. The last 20 years iv only gotten 2 tickets for no front plates and each time i just had it signed off by a coworker.
Now Idk what to do with my bm car, someone tried repeatedly for weeks to still her front license plate only. Idk why just the front, but some morning I would go out there and it would look like someone tried pulling it off. So I told her just leave it in the window, get pulled over then just explain why. Is she safe?
It's not legal and you're rolling the dice with it in the windshield. The real question is which costs more, a fine for improperly displayed plates or paying to replace the plates?
I completely understand why you do it though. It's a shame that people want to steal plates and penalize us honest people who pay for our registrations!
Reasons why they don't put front license plates: 1. It ruins the look of their car 2. Tesla drivers claim the front plate will interfere with the sensors 3. Social status and entitlement (Range Rovers, Maserati, Ferraris) - laws don't apply to them 4. They're just law breakers and lazy 😅 AND police force defunded equals to less units to enforce the law - basically don't have time for these low priority stuff.
@Hardwork McGee I didn't say I hate them. I drove a 2023 Model 3 and it was incredible. It's the owner, not cars. In today's motorists world, it's Monkey see monkey do. Like when people put stickers on gas tank.
I like how he taps the back and the side left bumper. Letting everyone know: I was here! I wish every state required both front and rear plates! Good show Stanley!
@@hardworkmcgee2998 Because if you're hit by a hit-and-run driver or you're dealing with a road rager, you'd want your rear-facing dashcam to capture their plate number. It drives me crazy when I see cars with no front plate. Like, how hard is it to attach it?
Why some people don’t attach the front plates…makes them seem suspicious or evasive. They think the toll cameras or red light cameras won’t also capture their rear plates? 😂
It’s for the looks of the front of car, no one is spending so much money on a car to drill holes into it, attach adhesives that can ruin paint, and just ruins the front of the car
no front plate = less likely to get a traffic camera ticket. I'm wondering if the police write up people for scuffing up their plates. you've seen them where the white background is sanded down to remove the protective layer. i guess they do it to make the plate harder for traffic cameras to read.
Just got pulled over for not having a “Temp” front plate in a car I just bought 3 weeks ago. This happens often in the 91fwy especially when riding through Fastrack lanes.
cars these days dont make front bumpers with a mount for a plate, so you have to either screw into the bumper or get some custom bracket to mount to existing bolts etc from under the bumper, straight sucks to buy a 40k+ car and have to de value it by putting holes in the bumper
@@BadDriversOfNapa ummm did you not get my point? i aint whinning, just saying if there is no place to mount a plate, the average person wont know how to do it, unlike me who would make it happen to be legal to drive and not get pulled over

Ohio went to one plate, maybe states could make up there minds one of these days.

When your ride is fancy in a state that requires both plates, they believe it doesn't need a front plate .
It's too good for it 😅😅😅
Not saying tesla is luxury but a lot of luxury cars don’t have front plates

Tell me about it. Lot of paper plates too. Also a huge culture of treating the roads and highways like race tracks posting to IG and TH-cam.
Tesla does not install the front holder, they just place it inside the vehicle and leave it to the consumer.
Many states now issue just one plate.
my god this man’s back i cant look at it
i do have a plate i just dont know where its at lol sure he dont i bet he knows he just to lazy or just do not care
i went to a job interview in portola valley years ago. I always wondered about those who put it in the front window.
