    I ran intrastate Ohio 2013 till 2019. At least till then intrastate Ohio commercial tractors must have front and rear plate. They issue 2. Rear must be lit.

    Now on IRP plates rules and regulations trump that AZ ######### ticket. But you will need to fight it in court. Sounds like a racket!

    There was a Ohio diesel cop that would write a tag light ticket to interstate tractors. Plate or no plate. If the light is installed it needs to work.

    When I switched, I removed license plate light.

    What an absolute asinine "policy" of his. I hope he is long gone.

    Go to Kinko's. Have them make a nice Color copy of the front license plate and then laminate it.
    If you are going to be travelling through AZ bobtail, hang it off the rear crossmember.

    Don't go thru the AL. West bound I-20 coops with your tinted windows rolled up or you will have to open your wallet and have lots of razor blades handy to scrap off all tint?
