Reply to comment by mkt853 in Anyone ever get pulled over for not having a front plate on their vehicle? by MrBleah
Because drivers licenses are used to establish proof of residency.

Such a weird thing to consider, but the initial blasts may be preferable to anything close to the experiences (with relatively "tiny" bombs mind you) people have had in the past.

Yes. Several times in the 2000’s when I drove bright colored imports.
Now that I’m in my 30’s I get away with it. Even on bright colored imports. 🤷♂️

If it comes to that, I would rather get the direct hit than what comes after

Been driving since 2007 now ( crazy time flies ). Grew up in FFLD county so that's a lot of luxury vehicles without front plates. Never really seen them get pulled over.
Leased a Lexus in 2016, pulled over in 2019 a few months before the lease ended. Cop did the most reckless U turn I've seen on a busy 3 way , stop sign on one. Chased me down to the end of my private road to hand me a warning. Again I'm thankful it was just a warning but my guy had to have driven by at least 20 front plateless cars just in that traffic and then decide eh F this particular dude.
I go to the Lexus dealer the next day and my guy says uh yea we don't put them on usually bc literally nobody gets pulled over for that in this area. It's a rule but... This is the first time I've ever seen it at all enforced.
So he was just as confused as I was.
I'm on a different car now and again no front plates I've been pulled over a few times since then, only once a real issue the others just hey watch it type of pullovers ( aka nothing no one really ticketing people for going like 42-44 on the post road ). Again no one has had an issue. Never comes up.
Like I know I'm pushing my luck but I'm just going to say that that cop just felt like being a dick to a young looking 30 year old Asian dude driving a nicer than expected car. Try to scare me or something thinking I'm a teen. Otherwise there was no reason for it in that situation. Potentially T boning 5 cars to chase me down.

Just FYI- Easton will be in “Easton/Redding/Region 9” if looking for specific information on their Special Services! Good luck ❤️

Had my car with no front plate mount for almost 2 years now with no issue. I do keep the plate in the front windshield though

Yes twice at Hammonasset beach in 2021, but never anywhere else in CT - weird!

I’ve had my AC replaced by degree heating and cooling. They did the job right (at least so I haven’t had to call them in 7 years) and did not overcharge.

Reply to comment by ThePermafrost in Furnace/Heat Pump Installer For Hartford? by ThePermafrost
I used them once for a hot water heater repair. Like $900 part. A year later the same thing happened - same blinking light sequence on the sensor. I call a different company and he showed me how to hit the burner with compressed air to clean it off. Was not even related to the part that was replaced.

I’ve been in CT ~35 years. I’ve had ~12 cars. Some have/had front plate, some don’t/didn’t. I’ve never been pulled over for it.

$20k a month? Three years ago we were paying $10-12k a month. Wait, less than that, we were paying under $10k
