Pulled over for missing front license plate

A&Q about 350Z
Q:

When I was stationed in Tex'ass I put my front plate in the dash somewhere in the front windshield I was there for three years and the law never messed w/ me not even the MP's on base which were always bored so they would pull you over for every little infraction. Has anyone else tried this w/ any luck. I now reside in FL my self no more problems

Yeah I got pulled over for speeding 80 on a 70. The officer went ahead and wrote me up for no front license plate as well. The judge told me it was going to cost me 71 bucks for not having a front license plate. I then informed the judge it's not fair that we have corvettes running around in Houston with no front license plate and I have to pay the price for that. She got upset about my remark and stated that "regardless its the law." Ain't that a Biaaatch!................Show me 10 corvettes and I will point out 10 license plates..
A:

huh? what's up with the corvette thing?

The new corvettes don't have the front license plate cover like the previous models therefore you won't see many with front license plates unless they use a special bracket. I have yet to see one but I am sure it will look like crap. IMO. Look for yourself.
A:

I got pulled over in North Richland Hills which is about 20 min from Dallas.
I know Irving and the whole metroplex requires a front plate.
A:

I got pulled over in Katy Texas. A suburb outside of Houston.
A:

I got pulled over on I-45 and the Belt way in Guns Point (greenpoint)
A:

I am in NJ and have been running without a plate for three years and never been stopped. "Knock on Wood". I even bought the grille mount for my plate, but I never even used it. I see a lot of Z's in NJ without their front plates. I guess it all about being lucky.
A:

...or the state you live in. maybe they just enforce it a lot more in TX.
