I'm glad to see some counter the idea of duplicating plates. The potential for a really bad day is huge. Cant imagine how this might seem like a good idea, but FYI-
Most states its against the law, period. While not intentionally pursuing fraudulent intent (just trying to assist LEO reading copy of legal plate), likely only get a warning but copying and representing as actual state issued plate possibly land you in jail and fined. Don't.
Falls under registration fraud, in CA its vehicle code 4463
As far as plate placement, my interpretation is visibility overrides fact its mounted on my 'cargo' and so move it from truck to camper.
On our camper you cant even see what color the plate is if left on truck when camper is mounted. I'm of the opinion folks who work in law enforcement have enough to deal with without trying to figure out where I'm from if they were curious. The fact that I've been doing this for the last 16 years and have never been questioned or cited only means that. Probably could have had it mounted on a propeller on camper roof with same results.
I Move mine from truck to camper when need be, I saw the man I bought the camper from was using this method and he said it worked for him with no problems
I thought of doing it but am to cheap to spend the money so I just move mine.
Sorry for the misinformation I ment no harm
