ODI #11674063

Incident: June 6, 2025 · Filed: July 16, 2025

The trailer license plate mounting is too low to accommodate a license plate. The tag must be mounted off to the side and so it does not have illumination. I was pulled over and given a warning by the police but there is no way to mount the tag without major changes to the trailer. This is on all production trailers from the factory. This results in tags missing from being torn off or low visibility to tags on a trailer due to no lighting. Trailer manufacturers are required to build trailers to have a lighted license plate mount.
