If your state only needs one plate on the back, like OK, you can have a second plate on the front as long as it does not have a month and year sticker on it.Here is something similar I catch every now and then.. This guy had two different plates.
And it’s about time! Best part is the new temp plates are in the DVS database nearly immediately and can be queried by the PD just like a regular plate! No more needing the VIN to identify a temp plated vehicle. Crooks used to cut out a chunk of a yellow pages book to stick in the back of their tinted windows. Couldn’t tell it was a fake unless you were right on it!Just started seeing paper/cardboard temporary Plates in MN this year. The 21 day temp yellow paper in the left rear window is finally gone.
It depends, of course. The police can use the fake plate as a reason for a traffic stop. Which in turn potentially gets them someone with an open warrant or they find something else to act upon.There is no repercussions
Here in California, it's unfortunately too common to see these infractions and misdemeanors being carried out with impunity:Just got back from the police office complaining about this, I got told that if HPD see a vehicle with a fake temp tag, they will let the owner know its fake, and confirm the VIN isn't stolen and move on
There is no repercussions, and they will not charge you, arrest you, OR EVEN CONFISCATE THE PLATE, yes, you are free to drive around the street, use tolls, commit crimes, all with a fake license plate. It doesn't even matter.
(Despite the fact its a class B crime that faces up to 180 days jail time)
Sometimes I wonder why we even bother calling the police...
Here is California it's about a $1100 fine to purposely obscure a plate from LPR, but there's a market for various products which removes the reflective coating. Just as window tinters are willing to sell and install opaque films but tell their customers it's on them if they are caught.There was a way going around to remove the reflective coating by spraying something on the plate, then rubbing/washing it off. I don't remember what they used. Maybe lie? Muratic acid?
