The CA told me I cannot drive it off dealer parking lot
without a front license plate:
"""
My management won't drill holes on the bumper but you cannot drive off the lot without a license plate frame and plate on the front bumper. I would advise to bring your tow hook frame ready to be placed on along with the printed license plate provided by Finance Department. CA LAW requires all new vehicles to have mounted frames and license plated prior to driving off the BMW parking lot.
"""
Is it true for folks lives in CA?
I'm seeing so many new cars in the road without any plates (front and back). I don't know why dealership makes such big deal out of it.
