What is the name of your state? Maryland
My wife recently got a new car. When it was purchased there was no plate bracket on the front. Dealer left it off. The car looks better this way and I didn't want them running sheetmetal screws in the bumper. Anyway the bracket was never mounted.
I researched MD laws and what I found stated that the tag had to be 'securly displayed at the front of the vehicle' and it had to be mounted horizontaly. Knowing that this would all be subject to the officers interpretation of the law I didn't leave the plate off I mounted inside the car in the front windshield. This to me falls within the law. It is mounted visible, horizontal and secure at the front of the vehicle.
I see cars all the time with no front plates and customer with plates mount everyway but horizontal.
Do I have a chance if I go to court with this?
