Actually NJ changed the law for the plate height at some point so this used to be legal. I was talking to someone at E-town about 8 years ago about this and he carried a copy of the inspection book specifically for this purpose, it only had to be on the front of the car and clearly visible. He said he would get pulled over for it then show them the inspection book and they would let him go. Now there is a restriction on how low it can be even though I bet some factory cars may not be legit because they are already low to the ground.

Double dumbass on you

Actually now the only people that want the damn front plate are police because they use it for the laser speed detectors, they need something close to perpendicular to the road to aim at, curvy surfaces dont work as well. I see Staties using the laser all the time now, usually they are hunkered down in the seat holding up what looks like a really old small film movie camera and they are resting it on the top of the door
