Illinois Front License Plate Law Bill 4888 change!!!!

[Intel]

for a state in desperate need of money, $800K a year is a no brainer. State police laser guns will still work. I-pass cameras can read the rear plate. Red light cameras can read the rear plate. And last time I checked when people try to run from the cops, they go forward not in reverse. 19 states have operated fine without them.

They are running out of excuses.

Yeah but then they have to aim a lot better to hit our headlights instead of the huge reflective plate. I swear this is the only reason why they have it.

I just heard we no longer need front plates this year.

Can anyone confirm this?

 

[Dragonkat]

If true, that's a win for you guys, that'll never happen up here

 

[VenomousDSG]

That would SAVE the state money, so it must not have really passed.

 

[divasixstar]

Not in effect yet... just browsed the Illinois laws/new laws of 2013.... boo.

what i didn't know is that its illegal for any driver under the age of 18 to use a cellular phone (even hand less) while driving unless it is to contact emergency personnel... weird.

Yup, no change yet. Sorry folks.

I really hope they pass this soon. I'm tired of getting tickets when I park the Evo in the City

Do what my buddy does with his Camaro and just hang one from the front somewhere non-permanent when you go into the city. That, or get one of those nifty brackets that slides out and up from underneath the front bumper for the plate.

 

[l0wb00st]

I've been considering bringing the other plate and using zip ties to attach it to the bumper, but I always end up thinking about it after I park

Just keep it in the car and set it on the front diffuser when you park, which BTW are nuts parking that in Chicago

Doesn't specify how it has to be fastened, fuk em.

 

[Burtonrider10022]

I zip tie mine to my grille when I park in the city. I have a bunch of long zip ties and a pair of wire cutters in my car just for this lol.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

I got a ticket for it in my front window back in the day. When I'd park I'd just jam on the drivers side; it got thrown out but still was annoying.

 

[Shadow99]

It was in the city one night doing what nots, go to my car and someone gave me a ticket at 1130pm. I didnt even know they have people walk around at that time!

I don't park it in Chicago very often. Every time I do I'm paranoid about something happening to it.

I haven't had a front plate on any of my vehicles and never get pulled over for it. I don't know if it's because it's a BMW but I've never had an issue. I figured if I got pulled over for it I'd just say that someone stole the plate because it's funny (LOLZ).

 

[Flyn]

Knowing Illinois, if they get rid of front plates to save themselves money, they will pass a law requiring you to put a black rectangle that you buy yourself in its place so cops can get a good radar lock. For...safety, of course.

I should have gotten this when I had my EVO. Would have cost me less than the tickets I got. :rollpicard:

Shit, ive lived in Roselle and Carol Stream my whole life, rarely had front plates on any of my cars and have never been pulled over or ticketed for it. Cops have mentioned it when pulling me over for something else, but not sure where or why people get these tickets.
