You would be cited for obstructing your license plate with dirt/oil, just as you would if you put a perfectly clear/transparent cover over it.Īwesome! you all have some really good points. It really depends on where you are, and who is in charge though.Īs for the oil on the plate: it is illegal (at least in CA) to obstruct your license plate with anything, even if the obstruction occurred due to neglect. In fact, I know of specific instances in which a pursuit has ended simply because it lead into another department's juristiction and that department told the first department to back off, before they put those citizens of the second department's juristiction at risk. Because of this, many high-speed pursuits are done without the necessary authorization, which (as I see it, anyways) would put the burden of public and police safety on the shoulders of the officer. Simpson) is kept at a simmer to push a suspect into a high-speed pursuit is putting the public at risk. This is why any pursuit in which the police department is aware of the news media's presence (think O.J.

This is because of the otherwise avoidable dangers the officer is putting upon the public. In my experience (if I can remember correctly) in a family of lawyers and having several cop-friends, most police departments in CA require the officer to get clearance from his or her commanding officer before initiating a hot pursuit. i'm also looking to design some for other bikes so pm me if you have any other application you'd like to have one for. i'm currently working on a patent for it. depending on options such as painted or polished, etc. i was thinking somewhere in the ballpark of $200-250. here's the winner though! you only loose 1 inch off the back part of your trunk space. it doesn't flip, rater it slides up into the tailsection.

it slides strong and fast and sounds sweet to. but when it is up there is nothing to be found except a slit in the undertail just big enough to slide a license plate through. when the plate is down, it looks like any other license plate holder. i'm just curious how may people would actually want one of these. the kind that fliped flat, but was still visible and extreemly ugly up or down. this is for you! the other day i sow a buddie who had a flip up license plate. weather you're into show, race, or just into keeping your identity safe. Ok guys this is what you all have been waiting for.
