Exactly.
Required in CA. 4 of our vehicles don't have them. 2 didnt even have them from the dealer. Whoops.
What drove this? I can't see any reason to ever get rid of it if you have it.
Never had them and always removed the bracket first hour after delivery of a used vehicle. When I bought a new car, I made sure the dealer knew not to install the bracket.
I live in a state where they are required. I've owned twelve vehicles and none of them have had a front plate. Never had an issue with LEO's.

This. Not required in GA. I might have no problem putting one on the Ranger, and wouldn't much care on the Accord, but one will never go on the TL.
Immediate pulled over, searched and ticketed without one here.
Cavity search?
They're cops not dentists.
Not sure how no tag gives them PC to search a car. Seems like bad policing to me and would have me calling a lawyer.
Vermont has total hypocrisy. A front plate is required. But then, the State will sell you a "commemorative" plate that you can install OVER your front plate, totally covering it. But, the front plate must still be there, even though for anyone to see it, the commemorative plate would have to be unscrewed off and removed.
So much for the idea that a front plate is needed for vehicle identification by law enforcement.

I want to put some kind of front plate on my pickup. It has the bracket as I use to have two plates in NY. But now in DE I have an empty front bracket.
Funny plate? Plate that makes a statement?

Hard to beat the one that my work wife has on her truck. And yes, I have had to borrow her truck before I got the Ranger to tow the kid's Civic back from Myrtle Beach when the dude fell on it. Talk about some REALLY confused people when I got out to get gas a couple of times. I'm sure they were thinking 'That is one UGLY girl'.
All he has to say is that he had probable cause.

Not that kind of cavity!
Glad we don't have a front one in the sunflower 
state. The man wastes enough here as is. Waiting to get the yellow snake license plate or the Wichita flag plate but haven't decided yet

I’m retired law enforcement. I did all my service in a province with no front plate. I can‘t recall a single incident where not having the front plate made my job any more difficult. If I saw a vehicle matching a description I was looking for and couldn’t see the rear end I’d just get out and look.
We don’t have them in NM, but there have been attempts to get legislation requiring them. While other states drop, we seem to want to add. Is this to balance the automotive universe?…
Or just stupid?
What gripes me is the local dealers that instantly drill all new car arrivals for a front plate and slap a plate with the name of the dealership on the car up front. Audis & BMWs, no. Subarus & Hondas, oh yes!
