I've never heard of these before today, but I spent some time in Philadelphia and I swear every third person there has a Fraternal Order of Police licence plate and/or sticker on their car. I actually have a couple pictures somewhere of various people who put FOP stickers OVER digits on their licence plate (and under one of those tinted plate covers, of course). Never understood the whole thing anyway since nobody ever seemed to get pulled over for speeding or running red lights there. 60mph on Kelley Drive (35mph limit) was average even though the local tow companies found it profitable to station multiple tow-trucks at every intersection whenever there was any rain or fresh snow.
