    The majority of states require front and back plates, so it’s statistically likely they live in one.

      TIL that it is a statistical certainty that no one lives in Florida, Pennsylvania, Michigan, or Ohio. The more you know! (Okay, maybe Ohio I’ll grant you.)

      To save anyone Googling it, 18 states do not require front plates.

        I am not sure that you read my comment correctly.

          I am positive I did, but I was making what is known as “a joke” about your assumption that the statistical distribution of states that do/don’t require front plates would have squat to do with it. Did the Ohio bit not tip you off?

            The only thing I assumed was an equal population distribution among states, which of course is not true but I couldn’t be bothered to do that kind of math for what was, really, supposed to be a very simple comment informing you that, actually, more states require front plates than don’t.
