he gave me the KRS# for the way the law is wrote on the matter in KY and give me his office phone # and told me to give it to the cop if he had any qustions on the matter.I think the police force up there is getting the big head with the badge and don't know the laws themselves.if it keeps up call the chief and speak to him.a little knock it off at roll call will stop the rookie cop shit. the old tag are numbers only and will not come up on file.thats why you have to keep the historical plate in the car.you are limited to using the tags only for the purpose of car shows, club gethering, parades or maintenance.I drive my car every day all over the place never had any problems and the police see it every day.the thing is if you look at the limitations of the historical tags you are doing just about everything the law says you can do.if he stops you again and you are not doing one of those things tell him you are on the way to the car wash to wash it or vacuum it out for an upcoming show or cruise in.there is a cruis in just about every night somewhere.washing it is part of the maintanance of your car.you need to get a copy of your YOM law and keep it in the car with you.when I started running the old tags on everything I called Frankfort Ky.main place in Ky and told them I was worried that I'd have trouble with the police running the old tags. trunk,under the seat,where ever.that way if you get pulled over you can show the tag to the cop.for the out of state guy that are saying it has to be registered to your car,it doesn't. I live in Northern Kentucky but run 1961 Ohio tags on my Bel Air.the YOM law for OH and KY are the same.you have to have historical tags registered to the car and keep the tag somewhere in the car. yom plates are causin a ruckus daily or showin off to get harrased.I haven't heard of anyone else bein harassed in ohio for drivin a lot with historicals.Originally they specified yearly mileage too,with the abundance of out of state or town shows these days you have a plethora of excuses to drive it daily(shakin out the bugs for the roadtrip this weekend to,carlisle new jersey michigan etc etc) just put a new carb on and checkin the tune yada yada yada.If it were me gettin pulled and harrased knowin bout the clerk drivin daily to work in the summer I would remind said officer of that fact and make dam sure that guy was gettin harrased too if these cops wanna get that cocky. But the way he tells it the cop is tellin him he's runnin illegal just havin them on his car and beleive livin inohio 30 some years i only know a few people who don't use their historical plated vehicles for daily transportation.Now either the cops in springfield think they are the shit,don't have alot to do, or people runnin hist.
