Damn. I just ordered a new vertical plate mount a few days ago. I wonder how strict they'll be?

Thanks for clarifying that.

Silly law..., mine's vertical and it's just as easy to read my plate as a car's plate when it's flipped on it's side in a ditch.

I'm assuming that it's like the situation with safety inspection stickers (home state rule governs), but even if your state OK's vertical plates I would bet some LEO's in states that don't allow it would pull you over. It's something that's readily visible to the LEO even though he/she might not identify which state plate is mounted.
