I live in Pennsylvania and we actually have a legal vertical plate. I don't why all states don't make one with the amount of riders that want them. Down in the Baltimore area I'd say it's unlikely they will mess with you. They have a lot bigger problems than that

My point, which you apparently didn't 'get', was that it is possible to check the laws in a state.

If something is not a law I wouldn't worry about it. As far as being pulled over, I get pulled over occasionally and get a good feeling at the LEO's frustration when he spends several minutes using his radio/computer/crawling around on the ground trying unsuccessfully to find some violation.

My comment was essentially generic, a suggestion to anyone curious about the laws concerning their scooters. And there are occasionally such posts on the web.
