You need to learn web research skills. Here it is:
S 402. Distinctive number; form of number plates; trailers.
1. No person shall operate, drive or park a motor vehicle on the
public highways of this state unless such vehicle shall have a
distinctive number assigned to it by the commissioner and a set of
number plates issued by the commissioner with a number and other
identification matter if any, corresponding to that of the certificate
of registration conspicuously displayed, one on the front and one on
the rear of such vehicle, each securely fastened so as to prevent the
same from swinging and placed, whenever reasonably possible, not
higher than forty-eight inches and not lower than twelve inches from
the ground; provided, however, that in any registration year for which
only one number plate is issued, such number plate shall constitute a
set of number plates for the time in which such use is authorized,
shall be displayed on the rear of the vehicle and none shall be
displayed on its front, except in case of a tractor, when such number
plate shall be displayed on the front of the vehicle and none shall be
displayed on its rear. [emphasis here is mine] NUMBER PLATES SHALL BE
KEPT CLEAN AND IN A CONDITION SO AS TO BE EASILY READABLE AND SHALL
NOT BE COVERED BY GLASS OR ANY PLASTIC MATERIAL, AND THE VIEW THEREOF SHALL NOT BE OBSTRUCTED BY ANY PART OF THE VEHICLE OR BY ANYTHING CARRIED THEREON, except for a receiver-transmitter issued by a
publicly owned tolling facility in connection with electronic toll
collection when such receiver-transmitter is affixed to the exterior
of a vehicle in accordance with mounting instructions provided by the
tolling facility.
