I don't run one for now. Haven't had problems yet (knock on wood, literally). I guess it depends on how much of a dick the copy wants to be. And they usually don't need to try hard.
However, it is a fix-it ticket. And just plain revenue generation for the damn local law enforcement if you don't fix it. Its a tough call. I already have the holes in my bumper for it, so if I got a ticket, I'd probably just replace it, and then remove it after having the ticket dismissed. Shrug. Its all a crock of %#@@ and just being in the wrong place at the wrong time to get a ticket for it, if you ask me.
