Front License Plates? A Spanish Expat's Surprising US Discovery

A Spanish woman living in the US, Mariona Falomi Silla, recently shared her experience with a surprising cultural difference: the absence of front license plates on many American cars. "Esto de los coches no te lo cuentan cuando te mudas a estados unidos," she says in her video, highlighting the unexpected aspect of this observation. She explains that in many states, only a rear license plate is required. However, she notes that in some states, such as California, front plates are mandatory. This difference, she explains, is not merely an aesthetic choice; it's a matter of state regulations. The video shows examples of cars with and without front plates, adding visual clarity. Mariona's video has sparked a discussion about the cultural nuances of car ownership in the US, prompting viewers to share their own experiences with license plate regulations in their home countries.
