It appears that the MTO does not provide a solution to the problem like the Australian gov't does ![]() I am pointing out that I am not sure what the solution is here. The problem is in order to carry enough stuff on said car I need to utilize a roof rack and hitch rack to carry bikes and camping gear. I have a fuel efficient car because this makes sense 90% of the time. I am not disputing that I am guilty of having my plates blocked, it just creates a catch 22. Just so everyone knows MountainKat = female human - although sometimes I am referred to as a feline when someone mistakes me for a Cougar Thanks for all of the great replies everyone. Well I guess I could sell it to the next person and let them get the next ticket. I have a grand invested in the hitch rack system, I can't just stop using it. Why don't they allow us to mount the plate to or license hitch rack? My tent trailer blocks the license plate completely, but the trailer has a license. I do put a bike or two on my roof, but the hitch rack is a lot more convenient and carries extra bikes when the roof box is on. ![]() So it looks like it is time to give up mountain biking or get rid of my fuel efficient car and buy a big ass truck to haul my **** around in. I said, I could mount the plate on the back of the rack, but he said that the plate had to be attached to the car. I asked the officer what the solution was and he didn't offer up anything. I get that it is the law, but this is a common violation and the officer did say he was giving everyone a ticket that he catches with bikes blocking the view of the rear license plate. I got a ticket today for obstructing my rear license plate with my bike rack.
