So let me get this straight...this is a piece of equipment that you have to pay for, install, and it only hides the plate when it's parked so you still drive with it out?? I will pay big money for the list of customers who bought this. There are a myriad of bridges and islands available for sale to them. ![Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif)

to big mac if your in ca you NEED a front plate or else its an $85 ticket, luckily for me in Vegas (nevada) i don't need to have a front plate unless there is a bracket or holes in my front bumper already
so that is a cheep easy investment, but too bad its waay low id be scraping on my front plate all day long haha

no you have the option to drive with it hiding or you can drive it with it out. lets say you get pulled over and you have the motorized one, all you do is press the button and pop it back uphttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhZRL...eature=related

You can get a no front plate ticket while you're parked too, similar to a parking ticket.
I'm with Big Mack that there is little practical use for this if you're in an area where they do require Front Plate and enforce it.

Like said above, flip it out if pulled over and they cant dispute it UNLESS they go as far as recognizing that its motorized...

Actually i saw this at a car meet, a guy had a mini copper with this type of motorized plate, if anything it was just cool to show off, everyone was around the car all the time to see the plate in action.

However, when you are on a private driveway or other non-public spot where you want to show off the car's front end, I agree, it is a neat, spiffy little device.

The law says it MUST be displayed at all times on a public road, except for some very few extenuating curcumstances (which I covered above). If a cop sees you with a bare front end, then stops you and, all of a sudden, you have the plate exposed, he or she can still write a ticket because you were visibly (to him or her) driving with it hidden. The fact that you popped it out only when stopped doesn't matter.
Don't get me wrong. it's a nice, neat, little device, but it is ONLY for use on non-public areas....or in states without front-plate laws, where it doesn't matter. But don't even think of using it on a public road in an applicable state.

Most of the time the cop comes up from behind and stops you for speeding. The front plate ticket is usually just an add on after he walks around and inspects your car. This can save you from that additional ticket. If the cop pulls you over for no front plate in the first place this won't help. This can also help going through DUI checks. Usually they will pull you over if they see any probable cause.
