That didn't take long. Hope it wasn't very expensive.

The officer must have liked cars a little too? He let you cross the street to take a picture of your car with his behind it.

I suspect the officer had no idea your mother had just passed.
I'm sorry that she's gone, however the cop was doing his job.

Never could figure out why they waste time on plate infractions when I see so many drivers texting and distracted , why dont they target them?

Distracted driving is a real problem.

You were quite the desperado driving around his jurisdiction without a front tag! New Zealand got another one off the street!

The exact same thing happens to me every time I return to Texas from my trips to Arizona. Same cop all five times too. He risks lives to pull me over, and he's only given me a warning ticket once. The rest of the time he's either just bored or hoping I have drugs on me.

That police car looks like something that belongs in a Pixar movie...

If he had already given you a warning for no plate, what reason did he have to stop you the other 4 times??

He gave me the warning the fifth time he pulled me over. All five times he stopped me it was for not having a front plate.

My radar detector warned me before he could get me for anything else.

I'm guessing he's referring to TOQUE'S solution. I have no choice but run a front plate here in NJ but Mark may be using one of those flip up deals on his car...
