Default use of non issued traffic plates

I realize my comments are dated.. I always find it interesting when people are quoting what they have been told by the "local Police". Not every peace office knows all the ins and outs of traffic legislation or Federal DND law. I also know that locals will sometime turn a blind eye for the sake of public relations for some mis-guided good intentions. I am fully aware that the guidance being given out here is from one who does know the ins and outs of all this legal mess, and only wishes the best for those who want to portray our vehicles in a legal and proper format. If people only knew "who" is at the other end of the keyboard sometimes, it would make some of these discussions very short. All I can say is follow the guidance given and regardless where you travel within that jurisdication you should have an enjoyable and hassle free ride, unless the cop pulling you over simply wants to ooh and ahh over the vehicle. I know what I am talking about as well, as have 31 years and more as a RCMP officer. I am also aware fully that other police officers were involved in this discussion thread.

enjoy your rides. Ewen
