No LEO that I know will write a "no front plate" ticket unless the driver acts like a real jerk, or it's in conjunction with several other violations being written. DPS looks for speeding tickets or PC to hunt for drugs. There are plenty of both to keep them busy.
Tell me about it. I've used it myself to make some traffice stops ;-) That and no rear license plate light are always good ones.

I didn't have one on the front of my truck and I have been pulled over for it. The DPS trooper just gave me a warning. Years later I got pulled over for speeding and it wasn't there again. I figured two times I was lucky so I put it on this time. Unfortunatley I had a big grill guard so I had to mount it behind the thing. Well you guessed it one they came out with that law that says every part of it must be visisible and not covered etc; I got pulled over again leaving San Angelo on Christmas Day by once again DPS. Once again I got a warning. Now I have it displayed on the front of my vehicle with nothing in the way.
