Default Calling all Ohio members! (petition)

Would anyone be interested in signing a petition? I want to start a statewide petition to eliminate front license plates altogether. MI, IN, PA, KY, and WV don't have them, why should we? Some cops claim it is for the safety of the citizens, which I disagree, as many crime ridden states don't have them. I honestly think front plates are a waste, and can save the state money by eliminating them. Agree?

From this sentence, I get the idea that many crime-ridden states are the states that do not require front plates. In that case, I'm for keeping hte plates on the car.

Plus what if you were a witness and the car fled from you, you have a chance of getting the front plate and the back plate instead of getting just the back plate.

1 out of 2 is better than 0 out of 1

It makes it easier to ID a car when used in crimes. CT had gone back and forth a few times on this.. in the end..I doubt that it honestly helps much.
