I'm pissed af right now! Took the cover off to ride to work this morning and saw it was missing. I have no idea when it fell off.

I should have known this would happen...the plate would always get caught and slightly dislodged while putting on and taking off the cover. And the shitty thumb screws seemed like they could easily loosen with vibration. I have no idea why it doesn't have a more secure attachment point.

No idea how long it will take to get a new one either. At least I took the day off tomorrow morning so I can fuck around a bit. Looks like I can likely file for a new one at my DMV without a police report, but I might try to report it to the police anyway as per some other randoms on the internet.

When I get a new one, that fucker is getting fucking zip tied on this time. No more shitty thumb screws.

It would have been such a nice morning ride into work too.

Holy shit that is fucking ridiculous. If they literally saw your plate fall off then they should have let you retrieve it. Shit behavior imo.
