Readers: Missouri Should Stay With Front & Rear License Plates
In the unscientific Sunday Poll more than half of those who voted supported sticking with front & rear ;oceans plates.
Here are the final results:
Q: Thirty-one states, including Missouri & Illinois, require front & rear license plates. Nineteen states only require rear-facing plates. Where do you thi [poll cut off the end]
Front & rear 15 [51.72%]
Rear only 11 [37.93%]
No plates at all 2 [6.9%]
unsure/no opinion 1 [3.45%]
Front only 0 [0%]
I’d like to see better enforcement of front plates, people shouldn’t be allowed to view it as optional if they don’t like how it looks.

I’m surprised that some of these “cash-starved” tiny “cities” haven’t already been doing this (citing drivers for no front plate).
This could also be another PITA photo enforcement “opportunity”; it would require multiple cameras, however, to capture both the front and the back of a vahicle as it drives by . . .
how about going after cars, usually old pieces of crap, with expired temp license plates usually from Illinois. I have a hard time believing these people have car insurance. thanks, Sarge
