If you have an ebike, is it legal to put a fake license plate to add noise to the readers?

[–] sturmblast@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

No, probably not legal.

What about a sign on your shirt?

[–] sturmblast@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

More likely to be legal.

In most places this is illegal and could get you charged with impersonating a vehicle registration - better to use IR reflective sprays or covers that mess with the cameras without breaking laws about false registration.
