A license plate light is required on the rear of a vehicle. A tail lamp or a separate lamp must illuminate the rear registration plate with a white light and render it clearly legible from a distance of fifty feet.
Secondly, how much is a ticket for no license plate light? Bachelorhouse. If you do get a fix-it ticket, dont expect it to go away after fixing the problem. Youll still pay or so in court costs.
Also question is, do all cars have to have a light over the license plate?
This may or may not include having a light on the license plate. Luckily, every new car already comes with this light built in, so the issue is just ensuring it does not break or burn out. However, old cars need to have a light added to be compliant with some state laws.
Can you get pulled over for no license plate light?
YES, it is absolutely something you can be pulled over for, and though youll never get one to admit it the “tag light thats mysteriously not working” is a favorite way to conduct a pretextual stop on a motorist he wishes to have a little chat with.
