Why are fun things illegal?
There’s a 70-year-old guy named Robert Davis from Key Largo, Florida.
And he installed remote-controlled black SHIELDS that he could roll down over the license plates on his minivan . . . so he wouldn’t have to pay tolls when he went past toll cameras. GENIUS!
Robert kept getting away with it until about a week-and-a-half ago, when an off-duty Florida Highway Patrol officer randomly spotted the license plate shields in action at a toll plaza.
Robert was arrested and charged with organized fraud and petit theft.
(And here’s a video someone else shot over the summer showing the shields in action.) I WANT ONE !
