And I think 550 2(b) is about those commercially available plate covers that make plates less visible while interfering with the plate's nighttime reflective ability.

No problem. You also got an excellent response from the out our state retired Trooper, thank you sir for sharing.

That was my point in that it gives the LE some discression as I could interpret it as your load is considered the "cover". Just saying, pass the attitude test and don't be a wanted criminal and you'll do ok with that most encounters but expect to have....encounters. I do although it's been ok so far.
