Winner, winner. Chicken dinner. I don't understand how the state can get away with some shit like that. I could've done 55 through a kindergarten parking lot... twice for the same fee. https://scontent-mia1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpt1/v/t1.0-9/1935486_10206622722824377_7555212018299630399_n.jpg?oh=4133810d792f5241aceff3e935a6b61f&oe=574937B5 Quote HistoryQuoted:

You had the plate tucked on your crotch-rocket and you've jumped on the throttle previously when being stopped, haven't you? |

In case no one else has made the point: I get that the stock setup isn't the most attractive. But if the law arguably requires such a set up, or would be satisfied by such a setup, why not use it? Is looking "cool" worth the risk of being pulled over and fined what is essentially the cost of a LaRue upper? On that kind of motorcycle the stock set up is usually very flexible. When it flexes and the suspension is compressed, the rear tire eats the plate. |

Those tinted tag covers are illegal to use on a state issued tag and they sell them in almost every auto store. The dealer license plate brackets that come with a new car are generally illegal because they block the state and stickers. Unless the judge is brand new and never worked traffic court as either the prosecutor or defense attorney they already know all of these angles.

I think I'd contact the manufacturer of the plate mount and explain what happened, they may well have to get some sort of DOT approval before they go on the market that would be a defense against this charge. See what they say, it's in their best interest that you not get found guilty. I read the whole thread and this is the best idea yet. I agree with krpind. Although, I bet they tell you that "of course it's not DOT legal. It's for off road use only" or some other line. Which, however shitty, screws you. Who would market a non-DOT approved license plate holder though? Those tinted tag covers are illegal to use on a state issued tag and they sell them in almost every auto store.

I have one of those.
Had no idea they are illegal. |

lots of bikes in FL with their tags mounted so they cant be easily seen from behind as to be able to run from the po-po. they have made the fine very harsh to discourage it. This. Lotta biker thugs bend the plate or otherwise monkey with it so that they can run from the police or escape cameras. I have zero problem with this. So the worst-behaved assholes now set the legal bar for all of us. Let's play that out further and talk about guns...
