Just remember fellas, you can call it whatever you want, justify it however you interpret the Law, or otherwise do what you like but, at the end of the day you are breaking the rules. All it will take is ONE TIME and the future is wrecked for the rest of us.
The first time a carrier owner gets popped for no plates, no insurance etc, the first bystander who gets injured, the first lawsuit which gets denied coverage by the insurance company etc etc.
When it comes to insurance, you guys should all know better. Insurance companies are slimy bastards by nature who weasel out of whatever they can. Give them a reason to deny coverage because you lied or misrepresented your vehicle and you are in a world of legal and financial difficulites on an exponential scale.
If I may illustate using an example;
You take your carrier to a parade being held by "name your group"
I have heard all too many times that the parade organizers have coverage.
You drive your carrier accross town to the parade and get in an accident. The organizers will run high tailed claiming you were on your own time.
Now, if you make it there OK and have an accident while on parade, who is covering you? The Legion who invited you? The Municipality or City government? Your local OMVA? Your own insurance???
I think too many of us take it for granted and hope for the best, afterall it will never happen to me....
Food for though gentlemen.
