 (Not the old vinyls.) What is the status of the obstructed license plate statute. I seem to remember a case that invalidated this as probable cause for a traffic stop.  | ||

 The cases all upheld it as a basis for a stop, but then the law itself was changed.  Now instead of any obstruction whatsoever, it has to obscure the numbers or letters on the plate.  | |||

 It's no longer enough justification for a stop if it only partially obscures one of those do-dad things.  | |||

 I believe I'm okay.  The report says the state was covered up.  | |||
