My wife got a warning for not having a front plate in Ohio once. We were on our way to a funeral for my friend and the officer gave us a hard time about the lack of the front plate. The plate was broken when someone backed into it in a parking lot, and I hadn't gotten around to fixing it. He demanded to see some kind of scars on the bumper as proof of this story, so I'm crouched down in front of the car on the highway in 100 degree weather, in my black suit, looking at the bug-splattered bumper for some evidence of scratches. It was not fun. Then I was the jerk late for my friend's funeral.
If I recall correctly, I risked the ticket and never put the plate back on out of spite.
