Daideron Posted November 4, 2013 Share Its a valid point. And just gives more ammo to those who dislike cyclists already. Is it a costly hassle? Yes. But its the law unfortunately. And if we want certain laws upheld or approved, then we should abide by the laws that are already in place. If you dont have a visible numberplate, dont cry when you get fined.If you use a trailer, you make sure the lights work. If you use a bike rack, the same approach should apply.

Squier Posted November 4, 2013 Share I agree it's a valid question. Has anyone ever been fined due to your bike rack obstructing the number plate? I remember worrying about this every time I passed a cop when I just started out cycling, but recently not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes and also for bikes obstructing indicators Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnobbyMech Posted November 4, 2013 Share After one Mabalingwe Lion Man, the cops in Bela-Bela only pulled off cars with bike racks. They had a field day at R500/pop. You should see their faces when they pulled me over and the plate was on, while numerous R500 pops flew past. I made some conversation, asked for directions, took a looong time to take my license out, etc. Swim.Bike.Run and Izak 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creme' Boulle' Posted November 4, 2013 Share On the way to Berg and Bush this year they had a road block just passed the first toll gate I think, they fined every car that had no number plate on the bike rack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daideron Posted November 4, 2013 Share @Backpacker...that is actually a very valid point. But, if you are taking your own bikerack then surely there is space for a numberplate? If not taking a rack, thats what a backseat is for!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Izak Posted November 4, 2013 Share Never used to worry on my Thule express.
