If the vehicle's construction makes it impossible to place the rear license plate on the longitudinal median axis, where is it permitted to be located?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The General Vehicle Regulations state that the rear license plate should preferably be in the center (longitudinal axis). However, exceptions exist due to construction reasons (such as an exterior spare wheel or asymmetric doors). In these cases, the regulations mandate placing it on the left side of the vehicle. The reason is to ensure visibility, especially for vehicles following behind that may initiate an overtaking maneuver on the left. Placing it on the right side or in a non-vertical position is never permitted.
