If you can fit a legal plate after you get pulled....might be kind of hard to explain why you didnt fit one to prevent getting pulled in the first place.
As plates are such an easy ticket for them, some cops will be arseholes about it.
Problem is, there is no grey area, you're either legal or you arent. It's an easy ticket for them to issue, and more tickets = more brownie points for them.
