Front number plate?

[slamm]

I have heard both;

1: front number plate is non-essential

2: front number plate is essential.

to the letter of the law?

can someone set me straight?

The law requires you to have both front and back number plates.

[Hiroshima Screamer]

sydney you must have both or good reason why you only have one

[JR]

saying you dont have a front plate because your intercooler is too big is a no no. if either of your plates are lost, the remaining one must go on the back of the vehicle. and the replacement must be attached as soon as a new one is issued. you may even be asked to produce a receipt for the replacement plate

I saw an MX-5 with his painted on his front bumper yesterday???

Is that legal?

[Skyrine-Dave]

i drive past a blue wrx everyday on way to uni with it painted on the front

CYA L8R prestige on back, painted white on front in small letters.

saw a monaro with sniper painted on the back! is that legal was body colour with letters black

[Zoix]

i heard you have to have the back one on at all times, and the front one unless you have front damage or your waiting for an attachment so it sits in the middle(illegal if not in middle)

but i would like to know also.

The only time you don't need a front plate is if there is no provision for it from factory. ie Corvettes and Import Series V RX-7's.

Well,

I got pulled up for not having one on the cruise on sunday.

waiting for slimline plates, just got cooler done, front bar been cut up where plate used to sit. regular size plates won't fit where I will put it, had regular size in windscreen.

cop was very nice about it. another bit of info for y'all. plates have to be visible from 45 degree angle at a distance of 10 or 20 metres. Don't know about middle of car or to one side though.
