Yeah, which isn’t exactly a good policy. I’ve seen a lot of cracked plates over the years - and some entities went to coated steel plates just for that reason.Police departments will throw them in a car and grudgingly buy new ones eight years later.
When I fly with plates, I try to sandwich them inside soft gear inside a hard case.
Down here a lot of hospitals will give free X-rays of your plates to LE/Gov personnel.
