Is the front license plate optional in NJ?

My car has just this antenna on the trunk lid- it's only a VHF/UHF antenna:

 

 

 

I don't have HF(high frequency) capabilities in my car, but on ones that do, you'll often see this antenna(which is very common among mobile HF operators, it is called a screwdriver):

 

 

And yeah, I was a volunteer firefighter for 5 years, and part of our coverage area was the GSP, so I got to see the towing rigs all the time...and they were exactly as you explained- window tint all around, including the windshield.  I won't specifically name the company, but they have my county seat in the name  

I'm in the midst of getting back into the whole volunteer fire thing, albeit with a different department. 

 

 

I had a screwdriver on the back of my car once (2004 Accord). Best comment I got was, "What do you use that antenna for? To talk to God?" (No sir, I go to church to do that!)

No it does not. My agency inspects all employees vehicles every 6 months. If any Title 39 infraction is found (tint, lp cover, no front plate, no ins, no reg, no inspection, unapproved equipment, cracked windshield, obstructed view, etc...) you get a ticket and written up. If we are going to enforce it on others we will enforce it on ourselves first.

 

I have no problem with this and frankly, I wish all PDs did it.

 

Kinda figured so. Kudos on your agency setting an example.

+1  If you don't mind me asking, what agency??

It's a small municipal agency in Middlesex County.
