I once didnt bother swapping the place and left it on truck, hidden. I got a warning parking ticket and he crawled under the TC to read the plate. No issues I guess that the plate was hidden away. Maybe if I was there he would give me a hard time and make me move it but RVers are typically not high crime suspects the cops need to harass....

Did you see him crawl? Or maybe since it was parked, he read the one on the front of the truck.

Georgia only has a rear tag, if Mr Andy was a GA resident at the time. No front tag in GA

Actually, I'll role with that ^^^^

They won't. No different than they're not going to track down and waste time on family vacationing in TC with no plate/can't see the plate/etc, on the truck.

The things people fret about. Now, if you're rolling down the road in a 30yoa rot infested TC hanging off a beat up p/u, looking the part of a meth head, yea, I'd worry. It's as useful of a stop as a broken tail light. It's called a fishing expedition. They work, they're great tools, and you want the cops to work them.

Seriously, comical thread.

I was born there. No sweat if you are Later Day. You can run ATVs anywhere, burn down the Dewey Bridge and push over rocks in Goblin Valley without any concern. An extra license plate should be no issue.

Mormons and lawlessness.

NY seems like a great alternative. ;)

Following advice on this topic I ordered a replica licence plate from Amazon. It arrived today and is excellent. It is an exact copy of a British Columbia plate, with my number added, it is very well made and cost less than $20 including postage.

Be thinking what qualities you want in your cell mate.

As for myself, it's an Arizona camper (no registration required) and spends most of it's Washington time on jacks.

Bill-of-sale is Arizona. When hauling the camper it doesn't need to be registered.
It probably a losing proposition for a Law Enforcement Officer (LEO) to make a stop and ticket.

Interesting. Time will tell, I'll let you know .
