Originally posted by WikkedClownz Wife was recently pulled over (state of AR) for improper display of license plate. She had the plate in the window in CLEAR view!! Was just curious to the actual black and white print which says you HAVE to place the plate in a certain freakin spot??!
Also, what would the policies of police 'ride-alongs' be in the state?? As the officer apparently had his girlfriend or whatever along for the ride?? |
