???? about laws of other states.........

[99 RT/10]

So, here I plan to drive across the country in the Viper(Route 66). No front plates. Actually AL. only issues a rear plate. can other states apply their front plate laws and write me a ticket? A while back, I had a car with legal tinting(dark), drove to Kalifornia and got pulled over. Cop told me he could write me up for it. I explained to him it was legal in AL and those standards must apply to my car due to where it's is register. He disagreed. He didn't wite me up, but threaten if he saw me again, he would tow the car (wonder why I don't care for them much). Anyway, does anybody know the answer? Can I get a ticket for no front plate or tint being too dark?

Your home state regulations apply to your car when driving in another state, provided that state has a reciprocal agreement with your state. Maybe CA doesn't, but most states do.

I wouldn't worry too much about the license plates.
