Laws of physics still apply to license plates. F (force)= M*A (mass times acceleration)....this means that the force applied to your head or face by the flying plate in a wreck would depend on the mass of the plate...and the acceleration applied to the plate by the forces of the wreck. In a wreck the only acceleration on the plate is that imparted by the car trying to move it forward. In reality, Newton's law of motion having to do with inertia is what is creating the motion of the plate relative to your head. This law states that an object at rest tends to stay at rest until another force is applied to it...probably going way too deep with this, but suffice it to say that most of us have a lot more deadly things that might be flying around our cars in a wreck than a license plate...

Just telling ya what a sherriff told me. And considering there's an airbag on the passenger side going off at supersonic speed, I wouldn't want to be the test subject

Yup, we should ask NEMESIN about how they renew RCW's as he's a lawyer. Probably has some good input.

Your registration should say "front plate still required". So if the RCW expires in July then maybe the next time you get your registration it would be different? My tabs are up in July so I guess I'll find out when the time comes.

I knew there was a reason I didn't like that guy...other than the fact that he doesn't celebrate Easter.

Hey, I like a good zombie story as much as the next guy.

As for the front plates. I say take your car down to the equipment specialist at WSP and file an application for an exemption to the front license plate requirement. You need to be able to show that your car is not equiped to support a front license plate. So hopefully you have not already drilled those holes in your bumper.
