I have a license plate frame that covers 'Athletic League'....so right now it says 'Florida Police'  Is this bad in any way? |
As long as you're not doing anything that would cause the average person to believe you were a LEO, you "shouldn't" have any problems; however, "technically" if any portion of the tag is obscurred, it's a violation. Most officers won't give it the time of day unless:
A) You're doing something that makes us want to stop you in the first place,
B) When we stop you, you cop an attitude. IT then becomes an add on violation
C) We need PC for a stop fo other reasons.
Of course, lets not forget "D", the officers just an ass or a rookie
A friend of mine just received one for this a few weeks back. A portion of the tag (bottom where the county or Sunshine State is located) was obscurred by the plate frame.
The judge ruled with the officer (TPD) and found her guilty.
Personally, barring one of the above 4 scenarios (yes, I can be an ass occasionally), I don't pay any attention unless I'm unable to read the expiration date.
