Won't help you if the Police drive by and write the ticket on a parked car, yup! they do that in CA.
My feeling is that people that remove the plate (or the new car dealer that removes front plates) are evil without knowing it, they encourage the revenue stream that is in place where photographic devices are installed to record red light runners.
Removing front plates started with a vengenace in CA around 1999 and has since become a natural thing for people that place vanity before laws. They deserve tickets where they are being written. In FL and NV it doesn't matter but CA it does.
