The other car didn’t have fronts either, so it’s got to be a border town or something.
Taking a gun across state lines can open up a shit ton of other charges too depending on a lot of different charges.
But gun crimes like this rarely get charged, the cops don’t give a shit so even if someone identifies the guy and tells cops where he’s at, they probably won’t do anything. Especially if it involves crossing state lines.
The reason people act like this, is they get away with it. Usually up until they actually murder someone
I guess my question is how much does a piece of tin stamped by prison labour really cost… if it’s more than a couple $ per plate then gouvernement is overpaying just because they’re the government
A quick Google says the population of Ohio was 11.7 million in 2023. Since you basically need a car to get anywhere, I’d guess probably 40-50% of that for the number of registered cars, so at $2 a plate cutting the fronts saves you somewhere around $9 million.
Not much when talking about the budget for a State, but not insignificant.
No front license plate is a criminal’s paradise
It’s Ohio tho, they have two plates…

Ohio doesn’t require front plates anymore.
That’s crazy, I’d hate to hear the logic they used to change that law
They can save money by printing half as many plates.
They still charge people the same for registration, though…

It was wrapped up in a big transportation budget bill, one of many amendments which were designed to cut expenses.
as with every bad idea, my guess is that they just shouted the word “freedom” over and over again
It’s weird. Here you have to have a front plate but not necessarily a back plate because of trailers
