[Bmcu] FW: Utah Bill to Classify Vehicles 30 Years Old and Older as "Vint...

[Jeremiah Curry]

My Uncle is a policeman in SLC and told me they don't enforce it anymore
because a lot of cars just don't have a good place for the front
plate....not sure if that is policy, or just him.

I don't have one on my MR2 turbo and have had it for 3 years without a
problem.

Police (generally), in Utah, are not charged with enforcing the "missing  
front plate" offense but they WILL ticket for it if you are stopped for  
another offense and ticketed for the "primary offense".  This, generally,
will 
vary from department to department BUT, if the nice officer wants to  
"speak" to you due to a suspicious observation or "gut-feeling", rest
assured  
that he/she may use the missing front plate as a basis for that
conversation.

The only  time I've run into a missing front plate problem is the Salt 
Lake City  meter maids, who ticket for this as part of their ongoing 
revenue  enhancement program for the city coffers.
