Plate Scanners.... · Page 2 · CigarBid Forums

[slightly off-topic]

For years I was under the impression, and have been told, that if you get a speeding ticket out of state or under a certain amount above the posted limit (i.e. you weren't driving at an excessive speed, within 10 mph, etc) that your insurance company would not find out about it, but apparently that's not the case anymore...as my dad found out. Recently his insurance rates went up due to a speeding ticket. When he called his agent, they told him that ticket information is passed on to insurance companies regardless of where or how fast. The speeding tickets I've gotten in my lifetime have never been reported to my insurance company, but it's been over 2 decades since I've gotten a ticket (knock on wood)...and one of them was almost 30 over. 😰

My wife was fined ($75?) when her car was photographed overlapping the pedestrian line by about two feet at a light.

ya.. I think here they tried to claim the license plate is really state property so distorting it was like a felony or something... I pretty sure I bought my plate and didn't sign a lease on it...... 😟

"Sorry Charlie", but the SCOTUS "conservative" block and swing voters over the last several decades have predominantly overly expanded the doctrines of: "Plain View" and "Open View". This has eroded our Fourth Amendment rights.

Issues like this ##could## interestingly put the likes of Ginsberg/Soto-Meyer and Scalia/Roberts on the same side of a decision, possibly for different and/or the very same reasons.Some of the greatest chains of cases and great SCOTUS Opinion reading here for those who care about how the SCOTUS works and reasons.

It has been 20-25 years since I took a course called "Search and Seizure", truly loved it and still find the social history and corresponding Opinions very interesting )except when the a-hole professor would yell at me every time he picked me to answer questions or recite cases.

{But, of course, I got even a couple semesters later and heard him almost stroke-out! Can you tell that I am still a bit traumatized by thoughts of him to this very day ?)

Yes, but it's not paint, it's a plastic cover you put over your plate. I know someone that one on all of his cars. Distorts the plate from all angles. Pretty cool...I think I'll find out where he gets them. (but google is probably a good place to start)

Ohio requires a front plate...I just choose not to put it on. :-"
