Shhhhhh. I skate often. Registered Ez user but don't carry the tag. If I get photo'ed they just charge my plate #, not often though

Yep, and if your riding style is such that you feel the need for this level of anonymity you'll get that anyway from the confines of your pine box courtesy of an equally inattentive texter or drunk and it will be free.

I'm all for obeying laws, but these sensors and cameras can be BS.
People have forgotten you're supposed to stop on yellow if safe. Most of the time I see is a light turn red and 3 cars go through. Wish they do that here to catch those ******.

Don't think it'd make any difference in my state.
We just got new plates and their f'ugly.
They're made this way to be made more clear for identification.
One caveat though is for the most part @ least in this part of the state we don't have camera's.

Related question for you Florida residents. Early March I was in FL and used the southern part of the Florida Turnpike, where it is "Toll by Tag". They take a pic of your tag and send you the bill. I was towing my little trailer. The trailer tag is plainly visible, but the tag on my Ultra is in the stock position, ie, pushed forward under the Tour-Pak. I think it would be hidden to a camera up high, pointing down.

It is over three weeks now and no bill. How long does it take?

Longer than 3 weeks.

I've heard that the cameras will sometimes miss baggers with the large tourpacks and the plate tucked up underneath.

However, you said the trailer plate was clearly visible so the registered owner of the trailer will be receiving the bill.

Maybe it's just me, but how does stopping at a red light qualify someone as an "obsessive rule follower"?? I guess I'm not bad-*** enough to play chicken with cross-traffic.
