Re: Texas License Plate Law?????

I can't see how it's messed up. Looks like there's still a penalty/fine to me. Is that the old code?

Re: Texas License Plate Law?????

It may be somewhere in this 8 page thread, so I apologize if I missed it and cannot find it now, but can someone reference the new code/law?

I have a new Dodge Charger, just got the plates on Monday. Let the dealer install them, and they did not put the front plate on. Told me that they NEVER put front plates on a Charger, as it requires drilling holes in the bumper.

Now, here it is Wednesday, exactly 2 days later, and I get pulled over for no front plate. Oh, and he thought my window tint was too dark. It wasn't.

So, what's the story? I don't want to ugly up my new car, but I don't want to invite unwanted attention, either. Especially if there is still a $200 fine, which is what I was told today.
Dying to hear what you learn. I've never put front plates on my cars. (sports car freak)
I thought the law was changed to where there's no penalty...

Re: Texas License Plate Law?????

FYI, no front plate has been a fix-it ticket for years. I never put on my front plate with my sports cars (they're not daily drivers). It's hideous looking on certain ones, and I've been rolling the dice.
Several times, I've been given warnings, and 2 times I was given a ticket. If you affix the plate, and show that you've corrected the issue, the ticket will be dropped with no fine nearly every time.
