Meaning. If I use a magnet to hold plates over mine after I enter a private apartment complex and well before I arrive at an incall, is that OK?
How bout if I pull into the parking area of a hotel and change them then drive up? Again, private property? Right?
For vehicles in my own driveway, can I mask or hide or use fake ones so driver's by can't see my plates?
BUT, replacement plates are really cheap. Go get new ones and make sure you mark the box where it says not to disclose the info.
Someone can still go get them at a DMV office but they must sign and pay and that leaves a track record if they are truly stalking someone.
I actually change mine out about every 7-8 months or so.
