One aspect that is uncommon to most other states is that Texas requires you to have a front and a back license plate. Now some may argue that this is quite unnecessary. Is one not enough? It certainly is in most states such as Arkansas. I’m originally from Arkansas and growing up, I never saw front and back license plates. After I moved to Texas, I began to notice the sudden change. I was curious as to why this was a requirement in the state of Texas and why this state believes we should have it.
Come to think about it, having a front and back license plate ensures more safety. Think about it. Perhaps there is a driver who runs a stop sign, with there being a front and back license plate, cameras will be able to detect who the driver was and give them a ticket. This makes the government's job easier. Another example would include a hit and run. Suppose someone hit your car while you were in a store and by the time you were able to go to your car, you had no idea who may have done that. Most stores have cameras outside in their parking lot and therefore they may be able to detect who the person that your car is based off of the license plate. The camera could be angled in a way that shows the front license plate or in a way that shows the back. The main point is that it makes it easier to hunt down people to ensure they pay a price for the action they committed.
Although it may look unappealing to have a front and back license plate, it is a safer option. For those of us who are against this law, we should now agree with this law because it is in our best interest.
