Even parking permits can be implicated in a violation. It is illegal to permanently affix anything to the glass, other than the state inspection sticker, which may obstruct the driverвЂ™s view. There are also many rules when it comes to windshields. DonвЂ™t want to pay the fine and then get caught again and donвЂ™t want to pay that either? Prepare for a potential 20-day trip to the county jail.

Such Title 39 infractions could cost drivers $100 the first time they are pulled over. Want to display your plates vertically? Or in a fashion that causes them to вЂњswingвЂќ? DonвЂ™t feel like cleaning the road dirt obscuring a couple of the numbers? Or want to keep that oversized plastic frame that the car dealership cleverly added on? Think again. We suspect that if this finds wide adoption among the public and by police departments, back plates could be wraps as well.The language of 39:3-33 could not be more specific: A vehicle driven on the public highways of the state must display вЂњidentification marksвЂќ - license plates -В вЂњnot less than 12 inches nor more than 48 inches from the ground.вЂќ While the subsection does say that if only one plate is issued to a driver, they must display it on the rear of their vehicle, that should be of little solace to the run-of-the-mill New Jersey driver, who is always issued two plates by the state Motor Vehicles Commission.

The bill that led to the program asked the California DMV 'to evaluate the use of alternatives to stickers, tabs, license plates, and registration cards, subject to certain requirements.' That's license plates in general, and California doesn't mandate stickers on front plates, only on the rear. And seeing that this is a front plate replacement program, the sticker needs to be placed where police and cameras can still read it.ДЇinally, the company recommends only using the sticker on a vehicle with good paint, saying, 'Removal of LPW will not damage the paint if the vehicle has original factory paint job or high quality paint.' Delivery takes three to six weeks, and for the purposes of the pilot program, LPW needs to be informed when the wrap is installed.

The cost is $85 plus tax, which comes to $93.89, and that's on top of the DMV fee for special plates. Here's the anachronistic part: LPW doesn't take credit cards, so you can only pay with PayPal or by sending a check, money order, or cashier's check. Provide the information for the plate - the same details you'd give to the DMV, plus the vehicle's mileage. Go to the LPW site and choose from the menu of eight kinds of plates. For interested CA residents, the first step to getting on board is to make sure your registration is current. The exploratory program has been extended and opened to the public.

After being approved, LPW passed a series of tests with the California Highway Patrol, then succeeded with a pilot program involving 28 fleet vehicles. A company in Huntington Beach, California called License Plate Wrap presented its idea for license plate stickers to the Senate in 2014. In 2013, the California Senate tasked the DMV with brainstorming ways to avoid the annual rigmarole of sending stickers and cards to vehicle owners. It's taken nine years and five bills in the California State Legislature to get to this point, and the program is still in pilot phase. Which is why the debut E-Type had a giant sticker on its hood reading, '9600 HP,' the coupe its own sticker with '77 RW.' The quest to avoid diminishing a car's leading-edge design continues to this day, and California might have provided a solution for everyone: Jalopnik reports the state now allows stickers to be used as front license plates. The story goes that just before Jaguar debuted the E-Type in 1961, the company asked the British government for an exemption from affixing the mandatory front plate.
