| Would I get a ticket for this? Can I move the plate stickers?
Posted this in the Police forum. But this side gets more traffic.
I know I'm not supposed to block the sticker.
But can I move the stickers to where the BC flag is?
I didn't know it would block the sticker when I bought it 
Kinda a waste of $10 to not be able to use it.

I've never really taken it off but your best bet would be heat gun. It's the least damage you'll do to the decal.

I just ripped it off my old plate with a sticker on it.
It was pretty easy, and only the right side edges are frayed. No damage to the barcode or serial number whatsoever.
So is this considered a nono or an ok?
I did not modify the plate. Only moved the stickers.

Though unlikely, you could get a ticket for the frame.
Why don't you move it below the flag?

Too lazy to take pics
But I moved the "day" sticker on top of the flag, and the month/year sticker under the flag.
Would that be fine?
I'm gonna call ICBC in the morning.
Incidentally, don't drop the decal on your leg hairs.
It'll hurt. Alot.

Kinda a waste of $10 to not be able to use it. | you'll never be able to get the sticker off without breaking it. they are anit-theft and crumble when you try to peel them off..
and it's $30 for new stickers and you need to surrender your plate.
the only way it will work is if you get new plates and put the new stickers on the new spot.

But you do need to call the cops and said you lost the decals before you call the insurance man to give you new ones.
These decals fell off of my dads car before.

i had my Month sticker under the flag before cuz my plate frame blocked it as well.
never had any problems with VPD or RCMP following me (even in richmond). as long as it's visible, i'm pretty sure you're good.

ICBC lady said it was fine, as long as it didn't block anything on the plate.
Meaning:
Stick it in the middle around the flag.
I moved mine with zero problems.
Heatgun, razor blade.
Then I double sided taped the plate to the holder. I need Hushmat. Badddd

yeah I was going to tell you what the lady at autoplan has said.
Just clear the frame you'll be ok. The only ticket they could have given you was "expiry date not visible" there's no specs for frames.

The Autoplan lady was wrong...the ticket is for an "obstructed license plate" and that is worth $196.
