Hanging chairs from ladder blocking license plate
I want to hang some chairs from our ladder on the back of our class C but when I do it blocks the view of the license plate. Has anyone had any problems with this with the police?

(Not so sure about in the center anymore either. It used to be that way but, I would not risk it these days. )
Moving it the other side would look really bad and get you pulled over in a second.
Please provide your state's statute stating such.
The Caveman made a pretty big assumption based on observation. Here is Virginia's extensive statute on placement:
46.2-715 Display of license plates.
License plates assigned to a motor vehicle, other than a motorcycle, tractor truck, trailer, or semitrailer, or to persons licensed as motor vehicle dealers or transporters of unladen vehicles, shall be attached to the front and the rear of the vehicle. The license plate assigned to a motorcycle, trailer, or semitrailer shall be attached to the rear of the vehicle. The license plate assigned to a tractor truck shall be attached to the front of the vehicle. The license plates issued to licensed motor vehicle dealers and to persons licensed as transporters of unladen vehicles shall consist of one plate for each set issued and shall be attached to the rear of the vehicle to which it is assigned.
