Today, I decided that I was going to get my front license plate put back on my car after two years of having it off. In these two years I somehow never got pulled over for it, as it is illegal to drive without one in MD. On my way there, I got pulled over for not having a front license plate. FML

Today, I got my new license plate, which is the story of my life. FML
Today, I had a rude awakening after a traffic accident the day before. I'd fled the scene to avoid having to pay hefty damage fines. I would have gotten away with it too, if my license plate hadn't fallen off and incriminated me. FML
Today, I got a $200 ticket mailed to me for drunk driving in Maryland. I have never been pulled over for drunk driving and I have never been to Maryland. FML
Today, I was pulled over and fined $100 for driving without a license, as I'd accidentally left home without my wallet. I later found my wallet wedged beside my car seat, where it had been the entire time. FML
Today, I received a notice that I'm being fined for failure to renew my Florida license. I've lived in Maryland for the last seven years and I've never had a Florida license. FML
Today, I finally went to the DMV to replace my lost license. After waiting for almost two hours, I casually rummaged through my purse. Something strange inside the lining caught my eye. It was my license. FML
Today, I took my parking permit off my car to debate a ticket that I got for not having my permit displayed. Twenty minutes later, when I got back to my car, I had another ticket on my window for not having my parking permit displayed because I was using it to disprove the first ticket. FML
Today, I was driving to the DMV to take a test, after getting some points removed from my license. On the way there, I got a speeding ticket and got my license suspended completely. FML
Today, I got pulled by a cop because I forgot to put my registration sticker on. I get nervous around authority and have nervous shakes. I ripped the registration sticker 3 times trying to put it on. The cop then gave me a ticket for "Improper Equipment". FML
Today, I got pulled over for violating hands-free law and not having an updated address on my driver's license. Two days ago, I got pulled over for the same reasons. Now, I have four tickets I need to deal with. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

It took you TWO YEARS to find a couple of screws? You went to pay someone else to do it? You were too stupid to say "Officer, I am on my way to have it repaired right now".

I live in Ohio and have been driving without a front plate for a couple months, but I put my plate up front in my windshield. I haven't gotten pulled over. The reason I haven't put the front one on is because for some reason the screws on the front Honda plate (car was from PA) are corroded, and I was told by two people I have to take the entire bumper off to replace the plate. Weird, but same thing could've happened to the OP...

Haha something like this happened to my dad. His registration sticker was 3 years out of date, and he got pulled over on the way to the DMV to finally renew it. Front plates look weird. In Florida, cars don't even come with holes to mount them, as I found out when I tried to mount my custom plate on my new car.

Ya see, this is why you glue license plates all over your car. Maybe you'll get pulled over for having to many license plates. ROTFL. I'm just kidding. xD x]

Am I the only one who assumed OP was female because they couldn't put it on themselves? Holy sexism, Batman! Then again, I just put my own new plates on and it was easy. Ymmv.
