NY Police Arrest Cyclist For Removing Cover From Illegally Obscured License Plate | Carscoops carscoops

He asked the officers why they didn’t cite the driver for the illegal practice, for them to reply they “hadn’t observed anything amiss” despite being shown photos of the covered plate.
The cyclist spent 5 hours in a jail cell before being released with a court date for December 1st. He will face charges for 4th-degree criminal mischief which translates to “recklessly damaging property over $250”. According to White, there wasn’t any damage caused to the plastic license plate cover which means he may win the legal fight.
A quick search in public records reveals that this particular Chevrolet Suburban had as many as 26 traffic violations in three years’ time. It seems that the driver thought of a not-so-legal way of avoiding tickets in the future instead of changing his driving habits to comply with the law. According to the HellGateNYC, drivers with obscured plates didn’t pay $144 million worth of tolls to the Metropolitan Transportation Authority last year, while at least nine traffic fatalities were reported involving those “ghost cars”. In the first half of 2022, the NYPD issued more than 13,000 summonses to cars with illegally obscured plates.
