You basically cannot drive a car if it does not have a license plate. I do not understand why in the USA it is ok to drive without plates (I've had rental cars without any plates - front or back - that came with a piece of paper behind the window because it was "new"). That doesn't happen in Europe. The license plate is the only way to identify a car (others can't read a piece of paper behind a window) when you get into an accident, or otherwise behave in a way that warrents people knowing who you are. Even if you by a car in a different country and just want to drive it back to your own country (lets say I want to buy a BMW in Germany, to take it back to Netherlands and take care of all the paperwork and registration in Netherlands, I still need a 1 day license plate in Germany to drive it in Germany. |

I have illegal tints and have not had a front license plate in 5 years. I have been pulled over 2x in 5 years for that reason alone. Cops generally won't pull you over just for that (although like I said, it has happened 2x). One thing cops will NOT generally tolerate is tinted windshields, which is more common that you think (every Infinity G37 owner with a fire extinguisher looking exhaust), but I have had cops comment on my CS and tell me they would not put a front plate on her either.
