In 20 years of driving w/o front plates, I've gotten 3 fix-it tickets in San Francisco, all while I was on a doctor's appt. I don't live in SF and I always take care of the ticket near my neighborhood police station and they always sign the ticket without ever checking if I install the front plate.
If you visit SF, make sure to feed that meter. SF has the the most expensive parking tickets in the entire United States. At $74 a pop, the city's standard parking tickets are the most expensive in the country. In addition to the standard parking meter ticket, there are 111 different parking citations doled out in the city, ranging from $46 for "blocking a residential door" to $880 for "blocking access to a blue zone." The City's meters maids are very vigilant in writing citations that the SF parking meters and violations have become a $130m industry - it's a cash cow for the City.
