...and I only have to have one license plate.

My Saab just passed NY State inspection today with no plate on the front. I have been stopped at inspection roadblocks a few times by the local police while only having the back plate on and have never been questioned about it. I have also been pulled over for speeding and have only gotten a ticket for speeding. That was by a NY state trooper and he didn't mention anything about the plate.

Apparently in NY, nobody cares about having a plate on the front of the car except in NYC. In the city meter maids [apparently] will often ticket you simply for having a missing front plate. That's fine though. I have an Isuzu Trooper that I use as my city going, airport long term parking, and daily commute whore.
