New car designs continually lend the impression that the designers had no intention of planning around a front license plate, despite a front plate being required in 30+ states and many countries.
Thing is though...do we really need to have that as a requirement? After all, motorcycles don't have front plates, and the fronts are designed without a plate in mind as well.
As best I can tell the only function a front plate serves is for tickets and revenue generation for not having one. It can be used by license plate scanners to repo cars, or for intelligence gathering purposes,but compared with rear plate only it's a negligible improvement in the grand scheme of things it can apparently be up to 1/3 of toll revenue. That being said, $23 million seems like a drop in the bucket compared to the overall city budget.
What say BARF? No more front license plate requirements on cars? Or nah we need them for the rare case when an asshat rear ends us and runs and the front plate falls off at the scene?
