I was pulled over for having a non-obstructive frame on my license plate. The officer said they interfere with the red light cameras. He then presented me with a screwdriver and gave me the option of getting a ticket or taking it off. I took the screwdriver and he watched me take it off. I lost a freedom due to a shitty ml model.

Time to paint your rear-end chrome.
Just put it back on? In my state, that would not be a stoppable offense anyway if we had red light cameras (too easy to abuse).
Well if this abuse is common the fines should rise. How would you enforce it otherwise?
