What? If any cop sees you without a plate you’re getting pulled over immediately.

The only time I was stopped for a missing rear plate in my ~week of waiting for new car plates a couple years ago, was once by the state police. I imagine it’s because I had a new car and they were confused about how I ended up without plates, which was definitely an unusual scenario.
Do you see police officers every single time you drive anywhere (or walk, bike, bus, whatever)? I know I don’t. And even if you do see one, they might have multiple reasons they’ll cite for why they didn’t stop X vehicle for Y infraction.
