I've been driving trucks for over a decade and know license plate regulations inside out. First, plates must be properly mounted in designated positions - front plate should be centered or slightly right on the vehicle front, rear plate must be centered at the back. Those tricks like bending plates to avoid cameras? Get caught and you'll lose all 12 points! Last year, a rookie in my fleet got fined 200 yuan for using cartoon-themed plate frames. Dirty plates need immediate cleaning, especially after long hauls in rain or snow - even one digit obscured by mud counts as intentional defacement. If your plate gets knocked crooked, you've got 48 hours to fix it. I remember spending half an hour at a service station tightening the screws myself last time - better than getting pulled over by traffic cops.
