Euro-plates are illegal

[hockeybronx]

Hey Playa...

So I go through a checkstop the other night.

The cop stops me:

"Hello sir, Alberta checkstop...have you been drinking at all tonight?"

"Nope."

"You haven't?"

"Nope...nope."

He then looks at me and walks around my car. Immediately I start thinking...will he bust me because my exhaust is too loud, will he notice my front windows are tinted, or that my license plate cover is tinted?

He comes back and says:

"That license plate you have on the front... take it off."

"It's not a license plate it's a euro-plate."

"I don't care... take it off, you aren't allowed to have anything resembling a license plate on the front of your car."

Man I sure didn't know this, there is no way in hell I'm taking it off... that's ridiculous.

Just a heads up for all ya'll.

I know I know :whocares:

This has been covered many times, pretty much every mod is illegal. Don't bother to pull it off, I see tons of euro plates around.

Hey Playa...

Yeah that's what I was thinking, I guess it depends on what kind of mood the officer is in. This guy was standing outside and it was pretty cold that night, he didn't seem to have any time for a young punk like me with my candystand mods.

[JCX]

I feel you. Don't hate the Playa, hate his plates.

[Skylinelover]

They are illegal and I believe it is like a 200 dollar ticket.

i had an old 50's brit plate on my car all last summer, with no problem.

what about all the 'go oilers go' or commerical plates on trucks?

such BS, it's not stopping me from getting my EU sweden plate next summer.

[Skylinelover]

Any funyn bumper plate is good but it can't be a real "fake" plate.

IE, Alberta plate saying like 69 that wasn't registered or anything. And if it was different than your one on your back bumper.

Hey Playa...

I know what you mean, and also what about people from BC or Saskatchewan? All of them have license plates on the front of their cars.

[nismodrifter]

Hey playa....

In Saskatchewan a front plate is not required by law anymore...its all the old skool mofukaz that don't know about the law change who still run them.

If you get new Sask plates, are you issued one or two?

Hey Playa...

Well if Big Mick is right then you only get one since the front one is not required by law. In my opinion the front plate is complete bullshit.

A. please stop saying "hey playa." it is annoying and you will only get flammed for it :)

B. cops can be dicks, just leave the plate, i highly doubt you will get hassled for it unless you are doing something stupid to provoke a BS ticket.

I have been using Euro Plates for .. many years ! (5 yrs ? ) and my buddy been using a Euro plate for 3 yrs ..

Never got any problem .... it means nothing ! since we don't need a front plate here, it just like any sticker for the car, or just like any " Flames", " Oilers " .. whatever front plate !

Hey playa.. :rofl:

It depends I think euro plates are alright but provincial or american platesare illegal to have if they are fake.

[rice_eater]

dont the custom plates with messages/pictures that you can buy and stick in the front resemble real liscences too? according to that cop those would be illegal too :rolleyes: ??

[91rss]

there was a post on 780 I think re a woman in red deer getting stopped and she said the judge in town had one as well so they better get right over and tell him to get his off as well....Think they faded away after hearing her response..

[chris]

take it off or he might give you another warning, they probably wont give you a ticket for a euro plate

[three.eighteen.]

he totally told you to take the plate off because the second you rolled down your window to talk to the cop you probably said "Hey Playa..."

[nickyh]

same thing happened to my husband while drving my car.
Exact same situation - check stop.

Still have the plate on the front and that's where it will stay.

[NiteRider]

i will never take off my front euro plate

[GoChris]

holy crap people who cares if he says he playa, just skip that line, it really doesnt matter, at least his posts are english and readable and actually relevant.

screw what the cop said, hes just looking for an excuse to use this authority
