Given the rudeness of your previous post I won’t hold my breath waiting for a quasi-intelligent answer, so as far as I’m concerned you are full of it.
Good day, sir.misterG Thanks this. -

I can back up what I say. Can you? -
(l) No person may alter, remove, deface, destroy, or otherwise unlawfully tamper with any marking, label, placard, or description on a document required by Federal hazardous material transportation law or the regulations issued under Federal hazardous material transportation law. No person may alter, deface, destroy, or otherwise unlawfully tamper with a package, container, motor vehicle, rail car, aircraft, or vessel used for the transportation of hazardous materials. -
Really do not understand why some want to debate a person on telling his dealing hauling hazmat. There is no way I made up what happen to me in Illinois. Nor is there anything for me to gain for stating what happen to me. It was to help others so it would not happen to them. Why is it so many don't read the whole post and are so quick attack. There is no reason for this. So if you want to use duct tape that fine I'm not stopping you only telling you what happen to me. Then to say prove it like I made all this up is really slap in my face for trying to help others. It makes you to want to not help any one cause they know it all.

Anyhow, the question I have now is this. How can affixing a placard to a trailer via clear tape around the edges as described by @misterG in lieu of a holder be considered tampering, defacing, or destruction?
I personally DON’T like to do that and would rather have a shop at a terminal screw 4 new holders on, but on the road things do happen and one has to do what one has to do.
I suspect a citation issued for that under the statute you cited could be beaten in court. -
I don't know where it is exactly in the rules, but in Landstar Orientation safety tells you not to put tape on placards. They claim it is illegal and they have gotten citations for it.
