I've been plateless for over 18 months now and no issues at all.
I live in one of those states, and I have a classic Land Rover with no front tag. Before going to EZPASS transponders, when I would get toll notices, it shows the rear of the car, so they take photos of the front and rear of the vehicle (wife's car with front tag always had a front photo). But if it was an issue, I would think an EZPASS Transponder should take care if it..

I also ran our Miata without a tag for 10 years prior to selling it, was ticketed for no front tag once (by an arrogant A$$ that almost caused a multivehicle accident walking out into the road in front of me over it )

Funny thing is, I live close to the border of a state that has no front tag requirement, so he could have very easily put multiple drivers in danger to have been pulling over a car with no front tag requirement (he couldn't see the back of my vehicle before pulling me over).
